Here it is October and the company I ordered from has called twice stating the cassette is still on backorder, waiting for delivery from Italy. I checked with several other companies and they don't have that particular getup in stock either. At this point, even if I find the cassette available, I will pass. I am nearly ready to put the bike away for the winter-- no point in making the transition if I can't test it out comfortably in the elements. I suppose it could make for a winter project, but my enthusiasm has waned. I shall ready my cc skis instead!
