Is there any import duties or crazy wait when ordering from R2-bike? Thanks
Nope, keep it below £135 inc. postage and expect to wait about 5-7 working hodays.

You’re fine with r2-bike.
I’ve bought loads from them.
If the value of the total order is less than £130 then there are no fees due at all.In fact when you create an account and sign in, the prices are displayed with 0% vat, because they expect that you’ll be paying vat at the border when the value is over £130
However, they charge 0% even for orders under £130! So it works out cheaper on a lot of bits because of this.
To me, this is actually a mistake on their part, all the other German retailers add vat on orders under £130.
It’s been like this for ages and I’ve exploited it many times.

I went for the level carbon drop bars for £39 - probably a bad idea buying 190g carbon bars from a place that won't be offering a warranty soon maybe... We'll see.
