Yeah no kidding. They also look like the Kenesis wheels, that are no longer being madeAs far as pricing goes, I have to wonder if it is more directly related to machine time vs. randomly creating a price. The XV centers as well as the old kenesis and fiske are forged and machined, so starting with a thick blank of 5, 7 or 9" aluminum which is going to be expensive in just material, then 5 or 6 hours on a 5 axis machining center at "X" $ per hour could be why they are so much. I'm just guestimating all that but I know it takes a long time to machine away so much material on a machining center.
