DISQUS

I've been waiting for something like this ever since I first learned what a CVT was. The price is still a bit steep though - hopefully it'll drop down to average-joe-level within a few years.

Fantastic! Very interesting. I'm a little wary of the special fluid though. I bet a leak and fluid top up will cost a lot.

As for price, don't expect that to drop. Price is determined by profit. They'll keep the price as high as possible as long as possible. What's the point of selling twice as much product if it makes less profit? Price only comes down when a maker is competing for market share. When competing makers are happy with their share, they operate a cartel to keep prices up and profits up.
