Something weird going on with price - a different model or something ??
Edit - obviously the heads are expensive ???
-
jeepers they have shot up in price for sure
-
two different models shown in those ebay items..1 is a C-915 and the other an A-915..not sure of the difference you'd have to check the website. There are a few variations as primarily they service the bicycle industry. ;)
