Thanks T0m! Yes, this is the highest end model so if you can forego the reserve wheels it comes down a reasonable amount, but its not a budget bike. That said, I know a lot of people who swear by Santa Cruz and their service and performance record or buy a bike with the intention to keep it 4-5+ years, so the price may be less of a barrier for them.
