I apologize in advance if I am missing something obvious. My question: does anyone know why the Build Kit for the 700 Drop Bar Sam ( http://www.rivbike.com/product-p/build-05.htm) is $125 more than the build kit for the 700 Upright Bar Sam (http://www.rivbike.com/product-p/build-02.htm)? I can account for about $32 difference with brake levers and handlebars. However that doesn't take into account grips on the upright bar kit and no bar tape on the drop bar kit. What am I missing? Something obvious I am sure! The price difference is not huge in light of the overall cost but not insignificant, either. I am trying to exercise some creative accounting in the hopes of stretching for the purchase of a new Sam. I was thinking to give drop bars on the Sam a good try, as I hope to use the Sam for longer distance rides (+20 miles). However, I am reluctant with the extra cost of the build kit and my budget. I know Albatross bars are comfortable as I have them on another bike, though I have never ridden them on rides over 20 miles.. I know I can always call and ask the folks at Rivendell why the difference in price, but I was hoping someone here might be able to help. Many thanks, Erl
