Kurt, et al.
I for one have noticed the price of racers going up. Even as recent as a year ago, you could pop in the local bike co-op and grab a set or two, setting you back 5 to 10 dollars. I'm sure it's still this way in a few places. However, from where I stand, seems like prices are on the upswing. I get skittish when they get near $20, but $279?
