Butterbean Posted May 28, 2014 Share I weight in at a feathery 100kgs, probably 105 with kit, spares, shoes, and bottles, and my road frame has held up superbly so far... Feel more stable and confident on it than my old name brand frame... Fwiw... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cal Naughton Jr. Posted June 3, 2014 Share Hey guys! I hope you can help me. I'm interested in buying a 50mm wheelset from UAM (HongFu). Despite their interesting grammatical use and vocabulary their service is actually pretty good. Anyway, costs are as follows:Wheelset: $470 + 4% PayPal charge = $490 (rounded off)Shipping: $120Total: $610 What are the import duties I need to pay on this? I'm not quite sure what the rate will be or whether I'd have to pay VAT on the amount as well? If anyone could clear this up it would be very appreciated. If it turns out to be about 10grand in the end I might as well buy something from DarkHorse or Blackspade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I paid R312 vat in December last year and didn't have any issues with customs. Wheels were delivered right to my door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
