Shimano forced to shut Malaysia factory

G_M · 06-13-2021, 11:47 AM

"Shimano's factory in Malaysia will be completely closed until at least June 14 due to an official COVID-19 mandate. Since June 1, the factory had been allowed to operate at 60% capacity."

Is it also hard for you to find the necessary Shimano components online or at the LBS? Here you have a factory that is operating at slightly above 1/2 capacity and now has a full-stop for a few days.
