My second order took just over two weeks for me. They did get held in customs until I paid charges there too.
Seem to remember the first time I ordered it taking a fair while longer.

Probably around £30, give or take.
Soldato
That seems a lot, think mine was around £30 both times.
Man of Honour
Indeed, mine too. The seller will likely have marked it as lower value so you end up paying the minimum import duty/VAT + handling charge.
Soldato
Customs charges will depend on the value marked on the box, not the actual price you paid.
The last set of wheels I got may or may not have been labelled as $100.

Seen Vittoria have sneaked out a new tubular glue called Magic Mastik which only needs one coat and sets in 12 hours...
I'll wait till I see the pros using it at the tour, but it could be a good time saver for tubs! (Now I have 7 tubes of mastik one
).

Realised I would need a spacer for my wheels so had to order one as it wasn't included. 11 speed hub and I have 10 speed SRAM so need a 1.85mm spacer I think.
Also had to chase up more tubular glue, ordered 4 tubes but no signs after a week. I have three but wanted to make sure I had more than enough before starting!

My Campagnolo Bora One 35 clinchers should arrive tomorrow. Pics to follow once mounted.

Wiggle failed to deliver my Campag cassette tool so can't fit the rear just yet.

I thought I'd see how they look. I can always go back to black when they wear out.
Here it is.

Tan sidewalls look ace in my opinion, very nice!

Just spent the last couple of hours cleaning and re-gluing my wheels and tyres. This is the last time I'm doing it I think, not sure I can be bothered to do again. Wondering if I'll notice any difference in rolling with glue as opposed to tape.
