Make a guess, they ordered too many drop frames, and sold too few.
Flats a safer than drops in the rock gardens and rutted roads. Drop bars are made for speed. Aero dynamic riding position is something for young people with stop watches
I agree with you chrisx, about flats vs drops -although not everybody does. Its a huge price difference $350 vs $999.
The Advocate Seldom Seen page lists both frames at $999

Click on the bike you want and it opens the page where you can order it. The small print at the bottom lists the frame at $999, but the large print at the top says $350.

If you add it to your cart it does come in at $350.
