Having worked as a bicycle mechanic for 10 years the price of tools and parts never really surprises me any more. I regularly fit bicycle headset cartridge bearings that cost £40 each, per cartridge! And they aren't the most expensive option. Using tools that cost £300+ for specific jobs that you need 3 variations of. Just last week had a customer opt for £90 bottom bracket cups instead of the £16 ones as he wanted shiny red to match his bike.
