Looking at a pro carbon, SRAM and Campag only, same for their other models too. Something a foot? Was looking for Ultegra.

Yes, they have. That's why the Ultegra something was so cheap a while back. They were bleeding all the stock out. When I bought my DD a while back they said they were binning Shimano. Something to do with the distributor.
Either Shimano have a distributor and they suck or Sram have a distributor and they're ace. Can't remember which

surely they just buy the groups they can get cheapest, if thats Campag/SRAM at the moment, it will be Shimano soon enough

I'd think as a manufacturer, they'd buy direct rather than through a distributor.

Won't they just go to whomever gives the best margin right now?
