You might want to double check on that. I went through this in January sometime with my girlfriend, she needed the 42cm LHT. At first I was told they couldn't get it, etc. Etc., so I double checked with surly to make sure they had some in stock. Surly is owned by QBP, so nearly every bike shop out there should be able to order it in if they have them in stock.
Surly told me they had plenty of them, so I went back to REI and finally found someone who knew how to do special orders for QBP products. Not sure why the first person I talked to didn't know anything about it.
This was at a Pittsburgh store. 130 dollars in dividends makes REI a solid place to buy a bike, that's for sure. Nice to be a member there sometimes.
