This is true of most things in market driven economies. When I was a sneaker pimp I always told runners that, if they found a shoe they loved, they had better buy extra pairs, because the company would surely stop making them tomorrow.
So, some questions: Can you get SRAM cassettes as loose cogs? Can you get a 13 rather than a 12 for the first position? Is there a good source for aluminum blades for the V2 ergo brifters?
Now I just need another DA derailleur and another Waterford Paramount frame....
