Design failure.

I don't like 15mm either.

ah... if it's such a big problem, why not sell the kings and buy something that will fit??

Because King is the company he loves to hate.

Common sense would dictate that as being one of those things you always have in stock. Not only are you irritating your customers, but you are losing out on what I am guessing is a high $$ yield part. One of those things can't take more than a few minutes on a CNC machine, of which I am sure they have a program for. It's not like Mr. King has to jump on a lathe for 3 hours to turn one out of solid gold. Put some stock in the machine and press go.

Not having some odd color or random part available I can see....

Seems pretty funny to me that a metal sleeve is out of stock across the country and has a 3+ month lead time...

and I like my 15mm QR Talas on my Yeti (with Mavic CrossMax Wheels).

Plus, I don't really see there being a 'season' for Kings parts. What is there to design on a hub adapter. For crying out loud, I could probably turn one on a lathe myself in less than an hour. It's not like they have to get ready to ramp up production for the 2011 model year hub adapters.
