Anyone know where I can get a set of brake shoes for my XS1?

Apparently MikesXS claims that they are no longer avaliable...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I have not purchased an ything from these guys, but know of a few friends that have and have had good luck. I ended up buying an extra set of front shoes for my xs a few years ago.

hope that helps!!
