There will be a shortage for small producers because they don't have the muscle of the big guns.

What will you guys do now to get your weight loss fix?

If theres a shortage its cos the cycle industry is using all the carbon fibre Taiwan bike frame building has gone carbon crazy, every big frame maker over there has carbon now most with second plants in China where labour is even cheaper.
