Anyone suggest a cheap but reliable courier from Canada to the UK for a complete bicycle?
iMuchas Gracias Senores!
 
I looked into shipping from the USA to UK a while ago. Although it didn't actually happen the name UPS came up, BUT, as I remember, it was much cheaper to split into 2 smaller boxes rather than use one bike box.

Yup, Thanks. It does look as though an equivalent cheapish method isn't available from Canada though...
...unless anyone knows better?

What out for customs?

I'm ready for the revenue man... :twisted:

Always leave the wheels behind, or have them sent seperately.

Bike components are 5% duty + 20% VAT.
Complete bikes are 15% duty +20% VAT.
THey have to be very nice wheels to make it worthwhile... ;)
