SRAM ends sales of internal gear hubs | Bicycle Retailer and Industry News

It is true that SRAM has ended the sale of internal hubs early this year. I guess they could not compete with Shimano or the more expensive hub makers. It is also true that SRAM was one of the worst companies to deal with for repair parts. Their attitude was "too bad, just buy a new one" and that was what eventually soured me on the SRAM dual-drive. Too few places would even attempt to fix them and the one I contacted wanted about the same cost as for a new hub to repair an older dual-drive. You can still find the occasional new-old-stock hub but why bother when you know parts are unavailable.
