MarkW Posted August 22, 2017 Share if you buy second hand and sell second hand once fine then it might not cost that much really.My exact thoughts. I don't usually 'waist' money, but considering the loss when buying/selling secondhand, I'm considering the difference basically 'renting' it for a while and then selling it off a few thousand less if no longer needed. But thennnnn... I'm only an eager age grouper, so after reading all the above posts- I AM STILL CONFUSED!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudi-h Posted August 22, 2017 Share a road bike with TT bars and a tri-seatpost is 99.9% as fast as a TT bike unless you are planning to average 35+km/hr on your bike leg... spend your cash on a powermeter, wheels and other coolsh!t MarkW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of interest, how did you bring it in? And what was the total additional cost to the website listed price (was it just the 15%, 15.4%)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lurkerza Posted August 22, 2017 Share Wow. Out of interest, how did you bring it in? And what was the total additional cost to the website listed price (was it just the 15%, 15.4%)? it was sent from Canyon via UPS,tracked all the way. The shipping, duty and Vat was covered by the competition sponsor, but yea 15% duty plus VAT plus handling fees! The selling price looks good but you need to be aware of the extra costs as well, shipping alone is a chunk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah look 323 USD for shipping is steep, especially if you're looking at the lower end bikes. But the pricing is very attractive. lurkerza 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
