I talked to Barnett and they aren't making anything for it. They also didn't know of anyone that was and didn't know who was making the plates for Cannondale. Cannondale is shipping parts again, so if you have an order in some where, there's a good chance it'll be filled.
I'd highly recommend updating to the new plates. The metal in the friction plates is almost twice as thick. The original plates just aren't thick enough and will deform considerably. I'm really surprised that wasn't seen during R&D.

I belive I paid 175.00 for all,not really sure can't find my receipt.Huge difference getting rid of the aluminum plates.I don't remember it having this good of a clutch feel when i first got it.Although I felt a CDALE with a hydro clutch and now I want one or a easy-pull lever to make it even smoother.
