Does anyone know of a good deal on sram gx axs upgrade bundle.
Have seen a few cheap on european sites but dobthey work out as cheap after you add the brexit tax?
I bought mine from Europe, but mech and shifter as individual transactions - worked out around £25 cheaper than UK sites after postage and vat and duty on the mech. But I already had batteries/ and a charger.
Warranty might be the issue if buying from Europe, Zyro might not honour it in the UK as afaik they have no obligation to and you'll have to send it back to the distributor of SRAM in the country of our hase
Under £380 at Tweaks.
That not cheap enough?!
Hadnt seen that and i must admit that ivve had bad experience with tweeks in the past always advertising things but not having them in stocck and no explanation of when it would arrive
I paid £389 from Certini, came next day. I wanted to get mine in UK for warranty purposes, just in case!
SRAM warranty is worldwide so if your system fails in any country then any shop that deals with SRAM should honour the warranty - they may charge for their time, but it shouldn't matter where it was bought.
It isn't a UK warranty, it is a worldwide warranty.
Buy wherever you are happy to buy from - buying local is the preferred option but if a deal is available then take it.
Never had a problem with Tweeks. Ordered an X01 AXS rear mech from them Christmas week and it was delivered next day. Was cheapest I could find and had a 10% discount code that could be used.

Agreed. but you'd be relying on a UK shop processing the warranty for you if they agreed to, or sending it back to Europe. For me it seemed easier to send it back to supplying shop in UK for the sake of a couple of quid saving.
Not what I've been told...the shop sends back to their local distributor (so Zyro, I think in the UK)...
Yes, but if you’ve not bought it from said shop (in UK) you’ve either got to pay them for their time/costs or rely on goodwill. Zyro won’t reimburse shops for their time so if they help when they didn’t sell it in the 1st place they’re out of pocket. Part of the profit margin on items is to pay for admin and handling.
Anything upto £400 should be fine great bit of kit.
Yeah, I mentioned that in my first post about possibly being charged for their time...however, that is the case whether it was bought in UK or not. If you didn't buy from the shop you take the broken part to then they may charge for their time irrelevant of where it was purchased from, the SRAM warranty bit is still covered but the shop time working to fix something not bought from them isn't.
