The timing was medically necessary; I have acquired a case of Stage III -x (TBD) lung cancer, with a tumor slightly larger than a league baseball in my upper right lung. It's encroaching on some vital pulmonary passages, causing bouts of nonstop coughing. I've been using what little traces of energy the cancer leaves me to get myself from one exam to another, and sometimes even to sleep. My oncology team are all serious professionals, the kind of physicians who operate on much higher octane than mere mortals, so I feel confident that I have half a prayer of being around for a while.
Soon I'll post up all the sizes. I have to gather the info for the CV kits, the standard VM, the oddball 450 (80 - 82) and a few odds and ends -- flatslides, etc. Probably by this weekend. Perhaps we can ask Frank to make a sticky out of the post.
I have enough material to prepare quite a few kits for anyone patient enough to wait. I also have plenty of 38mm and 40mm intakes, as well as some 28's and 30's. A nice collection of Viton. This would make a good starter kit for anyone who wants to take over my operation. I'd be willing to toss in the Cycleorings.com webpage, so the new owner would have an existing customer base.
In any case, there's no abrupt shortage of supplies. There will be continuity. The only thing I can't accomodate are impatient people.and God said, "Let there be air compressors!"

Sorry to hear of your diagnosis. I was my mother's primary care giver when she received a similar diagnosis. All I can say is that the horror stories people were telling me didn't come true.
