Yes you can buy fakes and products without any warranty and support sold by unauthorized dealers or find something on sale somewhere but that is way off the point. You are trying to compare two different brakes via price and rather than go to the source you are quoting random places with no control rather than the actual OEM price which would give you a good solid place to start. In science you generally call that a control but I am not scientist nor researcher though I do enjoy Dub and the Scientist is pretty awesome.

What is the point of the thread if we are just picking numbers at random?
