Why more than twice as much?

My 1973 Super Sport has the Velo-Orange 130 mm Grand Cru hub for a freewheel. I love the hubs and thought the rear hub was a good deal for $75.00.

I had thought about building another bike with cassette version when they became available. Now they are available, but are $160.00. Why so much more?
