I haven't had any Mirage Drive parts wear out or break on a regular basis. The only part which has broken on my 2014 Mirage drive, which has had a huge amount of use, is one cable. I haven't had any parts break repeatedly. or wear out after a couple of years of use. So it seems to me that you'd be wasting money if you buy a bunch of spare parts, because you'd probably never use them. If a part breaks, buy a replacement. Although it does seem to be a rule of nature that when a part does break, it'll never break at a convenient time, and/or when you're near a Hobie dealer who has a good stock of spare parts. The part will break when you launching on the first day of a multi-day kayak fishing vacation, not as you're coming into the launch site at the end of the vacation.
