But outrageously cool! Thank you!
EDIT: it seems there's a HUGE range of prices for these- some at half the price I originally saw.
Let me tell you about the price thing...
I am building a bike from scratch and currently buying whatever parts I like from wherever, and pricing is a JOKE!
I've found the same exact item for double or half price time after time. I've just started googling every part before purchase, and through the whole build, I'm sure I've saved several hundred dollars.
Example:Nitto Noodle bars, the big boy wide version,
$139:
Nitto No. 177 Noodle bar 46/48cm
$93:

$59:
Nitto Noodle 177 Heat Treated Handlebar 48cm 26 0mm Bar Clamp 140mm Drop Silver | eBay
^That is not a case of similar items; it is the exact same thing! Same issue with most items...
It's not a case of some sites being overpriced. Most of them give you decent prices on some things, and rip-offs on others. Buyer beware, I guess, but you would think enough people would know how to google that they could not get away with it.
I'm willing to show a little loyalty to a shop that helps me
(Shout out to Starmichael at Norther Cycles in Portland, who gave me lots of help and got a lot of my business at fair prices).

But some of these guys, more than double for the exact same thing...
