Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Do you think a link would be a good idea? Cycle SuperStore.

Cycle Superstore is Ireland's biggest cycle store based in Dublin just 14km from the city centre. We are highly regarded as the main light weight cycle centre in Ireland and all our staff are keen cyclists both on road and MTB.
All your Ireland base aren't belong to UK for many decades.

Upon further review, their prices aren't that good.

A Campy Record Groupset sells for $1703.

Slanes, in Northern Ireland (part of UK), sells the Record groupset for $1402.

Sorry. No, I haven't. I just ordered some Campy items from Slanes, and I am awaiting their delivery.

I've bought from them a number of times. No duties so far. I've never bought wheels from them.

You'll probably get charged customs duty for wheels. That depends more on US customs than the country of origin.

i've ordered a bunch of stuff from the UK, it seems very hit or miss with customs fees. generally the larger boxes raise more eyebrows in my experience though.

I guess your right,,defenitely wheelset comes with a big package,,the question now is what percentage of total package value that they charge,,..I might end up paying more instead of best deal..
