The industry will say anything to promote their goods. They'll say .... hey , we gotta cut costs, so we're just going to make 10 speed stuff only. Code for ... we can make more money. They are not hurting making 7, 9 or 9 speed stuff.
The hard thing may be getting hubs. The aftermarket will have to step up to offer 8/9 sp. bodies. I'm sure Phil Wood will keep them around. I don't think SRAM or anyone else is going to stop making 8 speed chains anytime remotely soon. I'm still lamenting SRAM for buying Sachs and closing the FW factory. Those FW's are great. I have yet to even come close to wearing one out. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
