Did everyone rushing to glue their cross wheels deplete the global supply of Mastik or what?!

I dug into my workbench to find a tube to glue up some new wheels only to find out that the movers crushed my last two tubes and I now have a ziploc baggie full of very hard and completely useless glue! :crap:

Glory Cycles was one of the few still advertising stock, but as soon as I ordered I got the "sorry, we're out of inventory--you'll get it in a week or so" email.

Guess I'll just have to stare longingly at the new wheels until the can arrives.

PBK has Vittoria in stock, Continental is back ordered.

The import channels regularly tend to run out -- happens 2-3 times a year. You can usually find it from various retailers but I always keep an extra stock on hand. The stuff still doesn't like to sit for that long and different seasonal batches always seem to be a little different so I like enough to patch over a period when there isn't any or the current batch is mediocre.

Glue is on the way and they have a killer deal on some Vittoria Pave EVO CG tubular tires too. Now if they would just get their Campy parts back in stock.....
