Buying from outside the UK

With the screen on all the time and using both a speed/cadence and heart rate sensor, about 90 minutes (depending on the temperature; only about an hour when it's cold). That's part of the reason for considering the RFLKT as the iPhone screen wouldn't be on (one of the biggest consumers of the battery), so I'd get much more out of a single charge. I also have a small and light USB battery pack that I could use to keep it charged on longer rides.

And FWIW, carry your phone in a bag if you can, not in a pocket. You come off-phone in bits.

Indeed, it would be in a waterproof bag in my jersey pocket.

Given that their cheapest shipping charge to York is £32.51, it's irrelevant what duties may be payable as that takes it over the UK price anyway.

I thought I'd gone most of the way through the checkout process without shipping charges being mentioned, so didn't see this. Definitely not the bargain it first appeared!

Waterproof bag stops it breaking when you land on top of it does it?

I do, but I'm coming to the conclusion that, for only a relatively small potential saving, I'd be better buying it in the UK (or possibly the EU).

True. I already have a Wahoo Bike Case that I could use to keep it safe and dry, but I no longer need the built in ANT+ as I've moved to Bluetooth Smart sensors. I was thinking of just buying a simple waterproof case.
