Really, it'd be ideal to have every even gear tooth count from 14 - 70t available... we aren't too far from it, but somehow lacking those few missing ones feels limiting when designing custom shifting gearboxes. It'd also be nice to have a few more sizes of Ball-Shifter gears... 40t, 46t, and 56t especially... although I suppose some might like 64t too. Instead of really only having a few 10t and a 16t pairing to choose from (34-44, 44-54, 44-60, and 50-60), we'd have more 10t splits along with some potentially really nice 12t and 14t ones (40-50, 40-54, 44-56, 46-56, 46-60, 50-64, 54-64). A few more sizes in the 80+ tooth range with VersaKey/Bearing Bore mounting would be icing on the (cheese)cake...

One specific extra ratio would be nice as well. A 27T 3/8 Hex gear, and then 47T 1/2 Hex and Dog Gears. This would give a nice in between ratio for the WCP gearboxes, that would be fantastic at about 13 FPS.

One other thing I would like to see is a COTS Disk Brake. The Poofs brake from this year seemed very simple, and it seems like it would be pretty easy to make COTS.
