I don't find the Tektro road bike, V-brake levers comfortable as they are too narrow for me.

I've known the owner of Problem Solvers (and QBP) for over 40 years and the next time I see him I'll ask why they were dropped. My guess is fear of lawsuits. Or actual lawsuits. For people like us, they aren't tricky to set up, but not everyone is mechanically inclined.
More than likely it was a temporary shortage earlier this year when this thread originated. I just checked QBP and they have them in stock.
