Anyone know where the stash is?
According to Sheldon Brown, Shimano stopped making these several years ago. I suppose it's possible that a shop still has some of these in their back inventory, but you'd be lucky to find them.
Did you ever figure out what was wrong with yours? Return it for a replacement? Trying to figure out if the one you got was just a lemon or if in general they have poor standards for making them. Sheldon made it sound like it was a complicated bit of re-engineering to design them so maybe these other folks weren't able to pull it off. I'd love to buy one if I could trust I wouldn't get stuck with the lemon you did.
