Bin done on the EU thread. 5% on components (which is how most brands bring their bikes into the country) and 15% on complete bikes the last time I paid the duty. Less than the price increase due to pound weakness since Brexit and considerably less than the increase due to pound weakness in the event of no deal.

Next week: Pashley, Planet-X, Ribble and all other UK bike builders cut jobs due to flood of cheap imports.

All good points on there though.

Possibly, but no sane person opens that thread do they?

AFAIK only one of those actually manufactures frames in the UK, and all import components...

It’s the perfect example of taking back control through Brexit. Remove tariffs on imports. Put UK manufacturing out of business. Make money importing stuff to sell to people working in call centres selling financial services to people in India.
