Edit: you really should check why they are not deducting VAT before you pay... I'm also in EU and VAT is deducted in the last step of the ordering process... The whole reason for the seller shipping method is to NOT pay VAT and let the seller handle it
Yes, I don't understand this, I'm going to ask them. :?

So what I understand is that the €74 are import taxes. Are there people from France, Spain, or Italy experiencing the same thing? (as mentioned in the description)

Everything should be covered when you're choosing the seller's shipping method. My assumption is that they send the parts and assemble them in Europe to avoid the dumping tariff or something like that.

Supposedly these apply with the sale too (?) https://www.aliexpress.us/item/32568045 ... pt=glo2usa. The G45 are intended for gravel - can I use them with my road bike? I see they recommend 30-50c width - possible to run with 25-28c?

Question - any bad experiences with the ratchet system failing similar to some people’s experience with EXP freehub and improper grease causing sludge build up resulting in skipping or non-engage of drive? Maybe a pawl system would be more reliable in this case?

They should be fine with 28mm tires imo, maybe even 25mm -, they're hooked

I believe the deal ended on the 27th unfortunately. Do others know how often these deals pop up?

I tried to order the 35s and they are saying they will need like 1-2 months to fulfill the order. I think I'm gonna cancel and order something else. Just a heads up
