As far as I can see, we bike consumer types have NOTHING to complain about. There has never been such a wide selection of bikes, parts, and accessories from which to choose. 5/6/7 speed freewheels are still available (and becoming more so, not less), if that's your thing. Yeah, you can buy 10sp or 11sp systems, too, but nobody is forcing you to do that. There is no retro-grouch persecution for us to rally around, though I will concede that you'd be hard pressed to find a new rear derailleur as crappy as what was considered state-of-the-art in the 1970s.
