Many things Nitto (including Pearl stems in most all sizes) are readily available from Ben's / Milwaukee cycles. Their pricing seems similar to RBW where there is overlap, and all my dealings with them have been great. When I can get what I want from RBW I usually do. But for things they don't carry, Ben's is great.
Regarding the more RBW driven products that have gone missing, I am hoping the rain pants return this winter (when it rains here in nor cal). When they were discontinued I got the impression that a revised version was in the works. Perhaps the jacket will see the light of day sometime soon too.
