Was about to post an Abe Simpson "man shakes fist at cloud" whinge about rim brake groupsets dwindling. But there's new 12-sp Ultegra Di2 new for £1300 out there and Campagnolo Record/Super Record mech too, as well as Centaur/105 at more palatable prices, which means means there's a future, just not as much choice.
Doesn't help that I'm tight and will stick to ebay/forums and keeping old stuff going! Seems to have been a wild trend for some people to upgrade to new model regardless of old kit's condition (SL7 to SL8 type-chat on Weight Weenies for example) which suits me fine
