I must admit I was a bit shocked by the 2008 price increase from Parlee. As the good folks there reminded me, all prices now include fork, headset and FD clamp, plus there is no longer an upcharge for different tubes (e.g., X, Uni, SL, XS)...but a fully custom Z1 still costs $2500 more than a Crumpton SL goes for, so you do have a point.
