If that is the case, just visit your local bike shop and order only what you need....Alivio is still in production, even though it is not visible on the website.
No applause please!! Just Money..Thank you..

Or go to your local bike shop. They will know what yo need so you don't have to worry about getting the right one... :?

Wow, that second guy has mine for $10...I may just pick one up as a spare. I've straightened mine so many times, it's bound to give out eventually.

On a related note, the team mechanic at 24 Hours of Moab showed me how to use one of these:

It's a fairly pricy investment, but if you go in it with some riding buddies, it's a good investment and help can keep the shifting smooth and precise.

The only thing I have to contribute to this thread at the moment is:

I love my single speed. :lol:
