Significant price jump on the 2009 ($3100 retail)--though this seems to be a trend across the board (went into the LBS the other day and actually looked at the bikes on hand--usually an uninspiring sea of Specialized and Cannondale. I was stunned to see that you couldn't touch a 105 equipped bike for less than $2000+ ... an odd trend given the times).
