Has anyone ordered from here? They have some nice bibs at good prices. If anyone has ordered, how was the shipping process? Slow, long, expensive, etc?

It used to be 12.00 per order, reagardless of size, but I got hit with another 11 bucks from customs. The good news is, it arrived pretty quickly, faster than performance, hahahah which is pretty good since its coming from England.
Sizing in typical Euro, but some brands are slightly large/small for their size. Which kit are you looking at?

I ordered from them too..Took about 7-10 days..I did not get hit by any Custom's duty...Noticed once in awhile they have some kind of special in regards to shipping.

I've had good luck with them. Shipping was about a week, if I recall correctly. Keep in mind that Euro-sizing runs a bit small from the American perspective. A size 6 (XL) jersey from Probikekit.com seems to be about the same as a Nike or Hind large.

G'day,
I order from them all the time.They quote up to 28 days delivery to Oz, but consistently get 10-14 days. I have never had any problems with them. They are easy to deal with, & resolve any issues quickly. In Oz, provided we keep our orders under about $200 we don't get charged customs duty or sales tax. The 'team' stuff they sell is the genuine article, not replica's. The only criticism I would have is that their 'homebrand', 'Prorace' is very ordinary as far as clothing goes! It is cheap, so i suppose you get waht you paid for, but is very poor quality. I wouldn't buy 'Prorace' clothing again....other than that, a very good, efficent company to deal with at very very good prices,
cheers,
Hitchy

I second that. They threw in a pair of Prorace shorts for $10 with an order one time and they were so cheap and thin that I gave them away to my father-in-law rather than send them back.
