The "basic" Icaro Z9 comes with carbon fiber sprogs. They are an $500 option on the Moyes RS. I don't see them as options on any of the other gliders. Readers can, if they wish, adjust the price of the Z9 accordingly.

I apologize for not reporting that Urs Kellenberger is a US dealer for Icaro. At the time I didn't consider listed dealers as dealers if they didn't have web pages. There was no listed web page for him on the Icaro web site: http://www.icaro2000.com/Dealers/US.htm, so I missed him. Sorry.

Urs pointed out the "problem" with the carbon sprogs, making for a less than perfect comparison. Thanks for that. He also mistakenly accused me of including VAT in the Icaro price, but later admitted his error (if somewhat grudgingly).
