Where to Order From?

We have four warehouses at your service: Global, North American, Australian, and European.

If you ride almost entirely road and are looking for some all-road wheels to finish your bike build asap, the European Warehouse is right for you. But, if you need more variety and customization, we suggest you order from our Global Warehouse for a more personalized build. You can choose a TPD (Tax Prepaid Duty) shipping service so you know what your final delivered costs will be.

Here is a quick comparison between the Global and the European warehouses to help you choose.

Torsten 2024/08/22

Is it possible to get the models AR46 disc & AR465 disc, which are available in the European warehouse, with the SRAM XDR freehub? Thank you!

LightBicycle 2024/08/22

Hi Torsten, Thanks for reaching out. Sorry the AR46/AR465 wheelset 700C in the EU warehouse with shimano road 11s. If you need sram XDR freehub you can order from the Global warehouse. We have TPD delivery which is tax included. You do not need to pay any extra tax, duty and VAT. Or you can buy a sram XDR freehub locally to replace it. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi Light Bicyle, do you have any plans on offering the WR-Series in the European Warehouse in the near future? I own a pair of AR wheels for my Roadbike and now want to upgrade my Gravelbike. Best Regards

LightBicycle 2022/09/05

Hi Daniel, We do not have WR wide road disc/gravel rims in Europe warehouse. You can order directly through our website. Which WR rims 700C do you like? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi Team, it seems that AR46 wheels are available in EU shop only without access holes. Are you able to tell when version with access holes would be available? Thanks, Teemu

LightBicycle 2022/04/15

Hi Teemu, Currently, we only have AR46 road disc wheels 700C without access holes in EU warehouse. The "without holes" option is our most popular one right now. You don't need to do taping anymore. Is there a reason why you prefer holes? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Jakob 2022/04/04

Hello As i can see and understand it, it is not possible to order rims directly from the european store? If i order af set of rims, how are they then shipped? directly from your US warehouse? Or is it possible to get i shipped from the EU warehouse in the understanding that you guys ship it there and from France ship it to Denmark? This would make it a lot easier for me since i would get around way to high importtaxes. Cheers Jakob

LightBicycle 2022/04/05

Hi Jakob, Thanks for your inquiry! Currently, we do not have rims in European store. If you like rims only, you will have to order from our global shop directly and the rims will be shipped from China directly. There is TPD tax prepaid delivery option, it includes tax/duties, you will not have to deal with customs/taxes by yourself, it is included in the shipping quotation already. And which rims are you interested in? How many? I can quote accordingly for your reference. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi, Is it possible to acquire a rim from your european warehouse or is it only wheel sets? Kindest regards. Michael

LightBicycle 2021/09/14

Hi Michael, I am sorry to tell you that we only stock the completely built wheelsets in the European warehouse. You will have to order rims only from our Global warehouse. Which rim are you interested in? 700C or 29er? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Frederik 2021/07/22

Hi Light bicycle, Will you get the falcon AR 56 30mm wide in stock from your Europe warehouse? What about the WR series? Best regards

LightBicycle 2021/07/23

Hi Frederik, We don't have a plan to stock AR56 wheels in our European warehouse at this point. If you are interested in getting one pair of AR56 wheels disc 700C, I suggest ordering from the Global warehouse. We offer a quick buy option for the AR56-disc wheelset. We typically ship Quick Buy wheels in 3 business days. This is much faster than make-to-order wheelsets. The optional hubs are Carbon-Ti X-hub, DT SWISS 350, Bitex BX312. We also offer Tax-Prepaid Delivery for European orders if the taxes are what you worry about. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Garry 2021/04/09

hi. im based in dublin ireland and am interestedin a carbon wheelset for my new giant defy adv 2. would it be possibleto discuss options?

LightBicycle 2021/04/10

Hi Garry, The EU warehouse only has built wheelset which means that the options are fixed. However, Light Bicycle is known for its flexibility in customization options. You can technically have anything customized. From rim options like finish, carbon fiber weave, hole count, to hubs, spokes, nipples. You can check out our options from our gallery or product pages. But the wheelset will be made and shipped from our Global warehouse located in China. I understand that the Giant Defy adv2 is with a 23mm wide Giant PR-2 DISC aluminum clincher wheelset 700C. Can you confirm the widest spacing of the fork for me? Our narrowest rim available online is 25mm now. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Philip 2021/04/06

Hello Light Bicycle Team, when Ordering from your EU-Warehouse from Germany, do i have to consider taxes and fees like Import-duties? For Example if i order a wheelset from the global wahrehouse, i would have to pay 20-30 % import taxes on top of the product when receiving them in the import office here in germany. So to speak: is the final price while ordering from the eu warehouse the final product-price for me? Greetings

LightBicycle 2021/04/06

Hi Philip, If you order from Europe warehouse, you will not have consider taxes or fees. Our Europe warehouse is in France, so you will not have to pay taxes when shipping from France. It is USD1077.4 totally for that AR46 road disc wheels with DT Swiss 240 exp hubs there. You will not have to pay extra cost. Thanks, Lightbicycle
