I think SRAM have changed their distribution channel and model to support LBS and certain online retailers no longer find it profitable enough to ship their parts. This is why some euro retailers will still sell outside the EU and others like crc won't. This is speculation so I could be wrong.Is there some sort of statement somewhere as to why they are no longer selling outside of EU?
CRC are just not able to make enough profit sending a SRAM Powerlink to anywhere outside the EU for free shipping.The Brexit strikes again!
I recently purchased a 10 speed zee shifter, derailleur, cassette, chain, and crank for less than I could've purchased an x0 derailleur. SRAM is by far my preference, but they priced themselves out of the market a long time ago. CRC are now just supporting that pricing strategy.
Even the most hardened SRAM zealot wouldn't be able to defend that ridiculousness.I recently purchased a 10 speed zee shifter, derailleur, cassette, chain, and crank for less than I could've purchased an x0 derailleur.
Amateur. A crc XO derailleur is dearer than m8000 shifter, mech, chain and cassette.The Brexit strikes again!

More pauper than amateur...I'm not even rich enough to look at that fancy xt stuff. Plus their cages are so long they make me feel inferior.Amateur. A crc XO derailleur is dearer than m8000 shifter, mech, chain and cassette.
Try running a 42t with a zee.More pauper than amateur...I'm not even rich enough to look at that fancy xt stuff. Plus their cages are so long they make me feel inferior.
Spends all his money on some spanking and forgets to order some love for the rear mech.I'd just like a working derailleur.
I can't fit bigger than 36 on my frame. I used to run 42, 40, and 38 on other bikes with a short cage x9. But now any bigger than 36 and it clips on the chain stay yoke.Try running a 42t with a zee.
Wait, what? Are you running your cassette inside out? (talking cassettes, not chainring, Einstein. Your ring size is irrelevant to your derailleur length)I can't fit bigger than 36 on my frame.

Chainrings perhaps...Wait, what? Are you running your cassette inside out? (talking cassettes, not chainring, Einstein. Your ring size is irrelevant to your derailleur length)
