Yeah, that's the price that I'm seeing for the 26s - it looks like their shipping costs have come down a bit.

They're great tires. Just curious on a datapoint - do these stay bead-locked on your rims when deflated? On my Zipps, they would unseat when deflated, which made sealant maintenance more fussy.
