Actually, almost every manufacturer on all bike model lines have their prices rising from fuel costs... not just Specialized, or just Fixed-gear bikes. Yes, the Capo will likely go up, but not for the reasons you cite. Specialized says that, "...price increases forecasted at 8-20% for 09 models..." so again, this is something across all models of bikes, not just 'fixed-gear' bikes. Specialized cites the exchange-rate of the dollar, as well as an "80% rise in fuel costs over the last 12 months" as factors.
