    Importing bikes from Europe after a no deal Brexit

    personally I would not be surprised if this outcome was what the EU have wanted all along to try and panic us at the last minute into accepting a bad deal rather than no deal. I hope our politicians are not gullible enough to fall for that, but then again they may be in on it

    The commission may not care but I'm sure the manufacturers and exporters may not be too happy

    Two Used FreeGo Eagles for Sale £450 each

    these are very good bikes and a great start for someone wanting a try at ebiking. I have had one for 6 years and has been faultless until very recently, but still running on original battery and now being used by son in law to help him over an illness. Freego is a good company to deal with

    Importing bikes from Europe after a no deal Brexit

    I may be totally wrong in my assumptions here,please correct me if i'm wrong. Would we not reciprocate and slap the same tariffs on, say Bosch bikes etc.?

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    why is there no labour here. Are you saying that British people won't work or is it just that so many young people are at university until in their twenties doing courses that are not worth anything. And all because that idiot Blair wanted to get unemployment figures down. If the young people in...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Dave is that supposed to be positive news. Seems to me to be one of the reasons for leaving the EU. Is the levy imposed by the EU just to protect Bosch from competition. Surely got to be bad for the UK ebike market. Come out the EU, import direct and sell cheaper. Keep their snouts out of it

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I seem to recall both Cameron and Osborne telling us that a vote to leave meant us leaving the single market and the customs union. This at the time when they were trying to scare everyone to death about the consequences of voting leave. Turned out to be a pile of steaming manure. Elements of...
