I notice that the prices on probikekit.com are way less than the cost of the same items at US shops. For example a set of Mavic Kysyrium ES wheels are only US750.00 + US15 + US85 special handling. Local shops are selling the exact same wheels for US1099 + shipping. This is a difference of approx US300.00.

Is there a catch to what probikekit is offering? Has anyone done business with them and can vouch for their offerings?

import tax/customs. i got hit up, but i'm in canada. might be diff in the states.

I recently ordered a DA group from them. They billed me the day they shipped and exchange rates were higher that day than when I placed the order. Also, my bank charged me 2% for the currency conversion. No customs fees and I got the stuff in like 3 business days.

I've done plenty of business with them and have never had any problem with them. Now I have never ordered any bike parts or stuff like that, instead I always have ordered clothing from them. They have a great selection of Pro teams stuff and that's what I like about them. Haven't ordered anything from them in a while, but I to noticed that they offered stuff at much cheaper prices than other places did, so that's why I ordered from them, plus they got clothing that I wanted much earlier from them than I did from other sources...So I think they are good to deal with..

How do they send their packages in the U.S?, I ordered from them a couple weeks ago, and they said they sent it on the 10th of Jan., but I still have recieved nothing! I am getting really frustrated with them,a dn I hipe this is only an isolated incident because their prices areawesome.

Well my clothing always came in a small blue colored "soft" package...I think it is some kind of international mail..They normally say to wait at least 14 but sometimes as long as 20-30 day's to get the stuff..But every time I ordered from them, I had it within 7 to 10 day's or less sometimes....Hopefully as you say, this is an isolated incident..

Be patient, it'll come.

Good prices and good product, I received my clothing roughly 10 days after ordering.

A great company IMO.

Do they send their packages through USPS? I ordered pedals, and shoes the other week so I don't think they will just send it in a blue bag. When I emailed probikekit, they said they sent it standard air freight (dues to price?), and to call my local Post Office. I called my post office, and they said packages like that may take up to 14 days, and sometimes 20-30!

This really stinks because with all this warm weather in PA right now I really want my new sidis! I am guessing maybe they got held up in customs, becuase probikekit said they sent it out on the 10th, so it will be 14 days tomorrow..... ::fingers crossed::

No I don't think they use USPS specificaly, but that is who brings the package...International air freight like you said, is the way they do it, so that sounds right......Yep, they'll come..

I know what you mean about the nice weather there domestique, over here in Michigan, we're having unusually warm weather also and it's nice to get out and ride!!

Hope they come soon for ya!!

Take care,

Benjamin
