An answer to a question no one was asking, and which didn’t need to be asked, now posted to Shimano’s European website:

Seriously, Shimano: why, WTF, and how come? I’m tired of this planned obsolesce crap!
The funny thing is, this makes me mad: Righteous indignation kind of mad. I’m going to write a letter to the editor kind of mad. Bob Geldof and Bono upset with Jesse Helms and children dying in Africa mad. How big of a bike geek do you have to be to get this upset?
