:^) Quite possiblly, Steve... My thoughts were really in the context of the SunXCD comments about a less-race oriented direction combined with the regular resurfacing of the topic of ghost shifting and tendency of current cassette designs to not stay put if you choose to manually shift. It seemed like it would be a bit cheaper and therefore more possible for them to come up with a long-lasting cassette of robust sprockets than hope they would tool up for freewheels. - Jim / cyclofiend.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
