As in the title. Looking through eBay they seem to be a lot less expensive than the UK. Are there any pit falls to be aware of purchasing from the US or can anyone recommend a good reliable supplier in the US? If anyone is interested in a Yoshi for 2012-2013 Blade, Calsport are doing them for £599 but for an earlier model they're full price or £749. When I enquired about fitting the £599 to the 2009 Blade they tell me it won't fit but can do the £749 one for £649
Quite a few on here have ordered them from US, inc me. Got mine from Biohazzard cycles, £387 plus £22 import duty. Carbon version.
i bought one along with lots of members here from tom at biohazard cycles. you have to pay a bit of import duty about £30 but all in price was £450. deffo worth going for!
Yeh got mine from Biohazzard, also a few replacement parts when I had a off in 2012, Toms a good fella
Did they say why the 2012-13 didn't fit the earlier model? Because any other manufacturer does the akrapovic I sold from my 08 bike fitted the 12-13 bikes and so does my racefit! When buying from the states don't forget to work out how much tax you might get charged, when I bought a rear shock I got hit for the vat when it entered the country! You might be lucky and not get stung but factor that cost in too to see the difference
No they only said they'd ordered too many of 12-13 slip on's and needed to clear space for new stock hence £599 on eBay but the 08-11 is in stock for normal price £742 it was but could do for £649 inc shipping. When I look everywhere else they're advertised as separate silp on's though.
Yep biohazard here too, email tom first before ordering and he'll mark it as a gift to save on the import tax etc
Where would the quality differences be? I've gone ahead and made the purchase from Tom, really helpful guy and it came in at £416 and he said he would do the thing with the gift marking too.
When I was in Orlando last year I went along to Toms shop ( Biohazard ), not that it is a 'shop' as such but more an internet business. Nice guy though and had a dark tint screen in that I bought for mine. He can get anything and his prices are the cheapest around, he said he would 'mark down' any purchases to help out. Postage is reasonable too.
