@sam @meganL @Heyweldon @ascentale In 2002, I gave up finding replacement 7sp SunTour freewheels. I coulda switched to Shimano and either changed shifters or turned the index off on the SunTour shifters, but I donated the bike instead and got a new one with 9sp. Still miss the old one with SunTour SuperbePro. Really nicely made, cold forged parts. And the old Mavic hubs were awesome

@dgodon @meganL @Heyweldon @ascentale interesting, I think I can still order those and I thought they were compatible with shimano either way. I'll have to double check.

@dgodon @meganL @Heyweldon @ascentale I do miss Mavic. I have no idea why no one imports it anymore.
