2x Delivered yesterday. Efficient seller. Thanks for posting this.

My 2 were since delivered too. Seem to be coming from a Volvo service centre, probably stock of an old extra option.

Not sure about the tax situation but Cigala Retail seem to offer the same or better price wise for most of the PMs on offer, local company as well.

This might cost me dearly, I'm looking at the IDRO PRO 2 JACKET but I'm wondering will the arms be overly long in size XL. I'd be saving nearly €100.:)

Thats a shame. My Sworks shoes are starting to give up. These might have been worth a gamble otherwise.

But as you said the Uk VAT of 20% will be removed and An Post/courier will charge Irish VAT of 23% charged plus handling fee. An Posts is just a max of €10 but some of the couriers do charge more. Probably still worth it with the discounts on offer.

The Irish VAT is the customs charge. There can be Import Duty all right on products over €150 value where it get's complicated. Some things are exempt and depends on origin UK made products are exempt and rates vary a lot.

The shoes posted above should cost about €140 delivered by An Post.

No other charges?

Tempted by the black/lime, are they true to size?

Not sure if it's helpful but I'm an 11 in regular runners, 46 in these.
Pearl Izumi fixed their sizing a while back. I was a 47.
So they should be true to size

No other charges and the fit is spot on. They come with a few sets of instep wedges and a neat bag. The double boa makes it great to get a comfy fit and the colour on the bottom looks great. I went with the all black ones

magicbastarder · 31-05-2021 09:17PM

had to spin up to decathlon earlier, managed to pick up a 105 chain for €22, albeit the last on on the shelf. they're still listed on the website though; that's a tenner cheaper than bike-discount.de, seems strangely low?

Looks like these are gone up to €127 now?

What price was showing when you pulled the trigger, Trigger?

It doesn’t seem to be available. It keeps throwing me back to the search page, whereas other products take me to their own page.

magicbastarder · 01-06-2021 10:54AM

yeah, that's odd - it was working last night. maybe their online stock levels include what's on the shelf and i did actually get the last one.

I'm an 8.5 but their sizing seems a bit quirky with 43 being an 8.3 and a 44 being a 9.

I guess I should go for a 44?
