BikeInn is selling the new Assioma RS-1’s for 430.99 (just under 450 ttl with shipping to the USA), and claim no import fees. Favero Assioma PRO RS-1 Pedals With Power Meter, Silver | Bikeinn
This is perhaps 150 cheaper than if I bought it from Bike Tires Direct.
Looks like it’s also on Amazon for 499 or so
No import fees? To what country?
It just says no import fees on the product page. I ordered to the US, so I guess I’ll find out in a week or so if that’s true.
I do see that now. I checked their FAQ and they’re a little vague there and under United States they have the old guidance of under $800 no fees but in today’s environment things change on the daily
Cheapest DI2 completes I’ve ever seen: Performance Road – Van Dessel Cycles
I wish I needed another bike!
Those prices. Insanely good.
I didn’t know Vin Diesel started a bike company 
“oldsram” force and rival components on sale at btd.
Not directly on topic, but since we’ve seen online deals mentioned here from Mike’s Bikes, they just bought out Full Cycle, a shop in Boulder, CO. I’ve never been to a Mike’s storefront, but I’m hoping this means I can get good deals in store in the future. https://sgbonline.com/exec-boulders-full-cycle-bikes-colorado-multisport-acquired-by-mikes-bikes/
I’m glad that Mike’s Bikes is doing well, from this news.
Edit: I did not realize this,
Mike’s Bikes is owned by Pon Holdings BV, a Dutch conglomerate in the transportation sector, according to Wikipedia. It is said to be one of the five largest bike manufacturers worldwide and “owns bicycle brands Caloi, Cannondale, Cervélo, Derby Cycle (owner of Focus), GT, Gazelle, IronHorse, Kalkhoff, Mongoose, Santa Cruz, Urban Arrow (cargo bikes), Veloretti, and Schwinn, among others.”
Yeah this was a whole big thing a few years ago when Pon bought Mikes. They were a specialized dealer before that if you believe the letter that Mikes Bikes sent out, Specialized immediately terminated their existing agreement in a particularly messy way.
but that’s kinda expected, yes it was messy and they (specialized) could have handled better given that it seems they sop shipping of products already ordered and such. but no way they would continue with Mike’s
does anyone know of a deal on a core 2 temp sensor?
Assioma Pro RS2 $675USD here: https://www.lordgun.com/favero-assioma-pro-rs-2-power-meter-pedals-1
Bought a set and they were delivered to the US within about 3 days without issue. Over $100 savings compared to buying from Favero direct
It seems I have no idea how any of the tariffs/duties work. I know it used to be anything under $800 you were fine but I thought that was eliminated and now tariffs/duties were applied to everything with some exceptions but bike parts wouldn’t be on an exempted list to my knowledge
The de minimis exception for parcels under $800 was only removed for China I believe. Should still be in effect for other countries.
Ah. Okay. A quick google seems to confirm that. Thanks
I’ve bought quite a few things from Europe since the tariffs and had no issues. Garmin 1040, 165mm cranks, the pedals.
Same.
