I want a specific Felt bike and they don't allow it to be shipped outside the country (their own rules I guess).

Can anyone please suggest/recommend a company I could use where they would organise purchase and shipping to the UK? I don't know anyone in the USA, or would use that route.

Many thanks

Have you thought of posting in the USA section. Scroll down to the bottom of the index.

I used to live in NYC and I brought my bike back when I repatriated to the UK. I used https://www.bikeflights.com

Excellent service, kept me informed throughout. I had a LBS in NYC disassemble and box the bike up as per manufacturer spec and they collected it from the store and delivered to my home in the UK. Took less than a week to make the journey.

I had to fill in some customs forms to demonstrate that the bike was mine already and therefore avoided import taxes, although I suspect if you're wanting to buy a new bike in the states and get it shipped over you'll get stung for these, unless the point of origin can assist you with the paperwork..
