So I was looking for some hubs tonight, checking Universal Cycles as a 
start and they no longer have Shimano non-disc XT hubs. I checked the 
Shimano website and it doesn't appear they're making them. It appears LX 
hubs are still being made but they aren't listed on the Shimano website. 
Deore hubs are still available although they appear to be made only in 
black. That totally sucks. I've found XT hubs to be great and have them on 
most of my bikes. 

Furthermore, Shimano appears to have streamlined their V-brakes. I guess as 
soon as road bikes are being made with disc brakes it'll be hard to find 
road calipers. 

It's not like this is the end of the world, there's plenty of options but 
I've found the XT hubs to be a great value. I'll definitely be looking to 
scoop up a set of LX hubs to put aside.
