why would you buy from the US when theyre plenty of great shops in the UK? and its menna be for the uk, so why no ads from the uk? Not saying you can never order from danscomp if you like in the UK, it just seems like they havent taken the time to change everything to more UK specific.

and arent those ads wasted on you? Its less a point of them having an ad, and more a point of there not being an english ad on the english version of the site.

you got it, it just makes sense, its (in very broad terms) wanting my 'local' having an ad. (i dont have a lbs, but i just mean england basically :L)

Eddi, it sounds like a failure on the part of English bmx companies and retail outlets. Why aren't they supporting the bmx site of your choice?

Well the fact that sites use cookies to personalize your ad experience would mean, that yeah it's most likely that vital doesn't have many UK based companies. Unless however Vital doesn't support this type of cookie data

I'm seeing Source BMX ads, including before videos, which I haven't seen on here before so I say it's pretty good.

We have UK brands coming in frequently, however. US brands still pay to have their adverts displayed globally.

depends. some hubs here can be like £50 and the same hub on you're end is $40. so sometimes if it's small it's cheaper from USA
