Yes, judging by their pics it looks much better. It's also $495 though....

If Gaerne can do it for $250, Sidi should be able to as well. (Both are made in Italy, incidentally.) Looks like they got rid of too much for their less expensive offering.

Glad you like your Vortices though, they look spiffy.
