Thanks for the price info on the tandem.
I wouldn't be buying a tandem, tho. I'm interested in the Tetra Pro single. The Calfee website lists the S and S couplings option as $450. I would sell my TricoSports IronCase to buy the hardcase (bike/couplings suitcase). Since it costs $80 *one-way* on a domestic flight, and I currently average about 4 trips a year with my bike, having a bike with couplings would save me money. Not to mention the convenience of being able to fit the hardcase in a rental car or taxi cab!
It's too bad that the airlines charge for taking bikes on domestic flights. I flew to Europe with my bike (packed in the IronCase) the past 3 summers and was never charged anything for my bike (on United Airlines and US Airways).
