• I hate to be the boring bastard but remember that if you get Trackstar to mark your Sugino 75 cranks costing £100 then if it gets lost in the post it wont have been insured for more than what the marked down value was maybe £20. I'm not sure how this works if you have a personal item. Insurance might not be available at all through some couriers.

    I'm all for getting stuff cheap. Sometimes the risk is just not worth the saving though.

    See that's what I don't get - 75's work out at about £96 from Trackstar (unless I'm wrong), and that's not including postage and the subsequent duty issues, whereas they're £109 here, which for me isn't a big enough difference to warrant the potential grief. I know that other things have a greater price difference though, but I've noticed similarly small benefits when buying stuff like MKS pedals and Nitto stuff too.
