HardBrakes or other brand Titanium Shims

Does anyone know if HardBrakes is the only one who makes titanium brake pad shims for the 135? I've emailed them and haven't gotten a response yet and they do not have a listed phone number to call.

I've seen a few listings on ebay, but I'm not sure. I also need to make sure that the shims don't block the wear sensors.

Anyone have more information?

Is HardBrakes still in business? They show the shims for the 135 as being "Out of Stock" with no date on when they'll have them. I've emailed them and they've not responded.

Not much of a business when they don't offer the product and don't respond to emails. You can't buy their product even if you want to...

Another thing. Can you get these shims for front and back brake pads or do you only run shims on the fronts?

Wow. That sucks. Glad I got my Ti shims already. They are a good product.
