I am thinking about importing a bicycle frameset from the UK to Germany. Does anyone know how the numbers roughly add up? Is it the frameset (1900 GBP in this case) plus German VAT (19%) plus shipping plus customs?

[tody]

@RobeOfTheMagi vat+customs are usually calculated off the price of the goods plus the price of shipping.

[Tago Mago]

@RobeOfTheMagi it also depends on who you are buying from, commercial or private. Commercial may offer DDP, in which case they will take care of all the necessary paperwork and what you see as the final price before buying is what you will ultimately pay

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Thank you! It's a commercial seller.

We got a taste of the SST denim making a comeback in 555 cut but has there been any developments on other cuts (888)? Also, I could be wrong, but it seems the 888 cut hasn't been getting much love on the restocks this year... I'd just like to voice my support for the cut

@Alex @AdamJ I figure since the thread is still locked, there obviously aren't any imminent updates on the 526-SBG, but I'm wondering — is it even still happening? Just in limbo? Or likely getting the kibosh? I know IWHWIH etc etc but just kinda curious if I should keep my hopes up.

[Alex]

@popvulture no updates, it is planned but not in production.

[popvulture]

@Alex gotcha — much appreciated, man!

Just got hired on to a new job where I'll be required to wear a lanyard and badge. What are you guys who work in places like that wearing? I know Good Art made a badge clip at some point, but I don't think they make it anymore. Looking for something that has a hint of well-made and over-engineered in the IH spirit, what's been working for y'all? I think my starting point will be a Good Art Ball chain necklace with a silver mini BLB.

[pechelman]

Do people in the office wear the lanyards or clip it on a belt loop? All of my offices technically have required wearing the badge high and near your face but in practice 90% of people clip it on a belt loop.

The few times I've worn a lanyard I didn't really care and just used whatever the company provided.

[chrisjohnnick]

I guess either is fine. I have a brass BLB that I haven't been using as much lately since my keys always just stay in my backpack. I would use those, but I won't have belt loops on the clothes I'm wearing. I was just imagining using the GA chain and mini BLB that I already have and don't use that often. Wanted to give them a purpose.

Good Art made a keybak once. That thing was beautiful.

I love my 822s so much. The leg, thigh and top block have grown to become my favorite I think.
Which of the core cuts matches the leg from the thigh down the most? 634?

[T4920]

@Mizmazzle I need a pair of 822s badly. After wearing my IH cargos for 3 months, I'm completely sold on the wider, straight legged fit and my slimmer jeans just don't feel right anymore...
