Favorite discontinued cycling product

[madsciencenow]

I liked power gels and bars. Somebody already mentioned Enve RB wheels which I still would buy w tubeless compatibility for one bike.

Fortunately, I have 2 backup pair, but the CLEAT COVERS for these have been discontinued for so long that my existing pair are now more 'Shoe Goo' than cleat cover...

That's a -very- specific product.

Speed Play Frogs. I'm still using them, but man are NOS and used cleats getting expensive. Nothing on the market like them.

I used to hoard parts. Particularly pedals, bars and saddles.
I had a stash of:
Dura-Ace 7410 pedals
Ti rail, leather cover San Marco Concor and Strada saddles.
Short reach, shallow drop handlebars with classic.

Know what? In 2024, someone makes a better product in every category. And I no longer even like a classic bend bar!

Same here...
I love the very first pair of MTB shorts I bought when I got back into cycling. Pearl Izumi baggy cargo shorts and long discontinued.
Wasn't very hopeful, but I found some on eBay in almost new condition.

I hoard Regal saddles, but my stash is down to 3. I see them on websites but they're often out of stock or back ordered. My MTB and Open Min.d have SI max flites, but everything else has Regals, even the trainer bike. I am bigbill so I've broken a few Ti rails, so I only buy steel rail models. Regals fit me.

bebop pedals and cleats. "Road light, mountain tough". Free float, which I like.

I have probably 4-5 Regals in my basement stash. I've moved on to the RegalE. Want me to take some pics? Definitely bro pricing.

the general idea of what a 2000s cross bike was.. I know we still have cross bikes available today, but with the advent of gravel bikes, it seems cross bikes are less and less and "different" than in the 2000s.. those bikes just felt great on the trails I rode them on and, generally, were also fun enough on the road (and the geos usually worked well for me).. examples would be something like a Salsa Las Cruces, Chile Con Crosso, or even the early Giant TCX.. I'm sure there were others.
