By adding these improvements Tilta claims that it wasn’t possible to keep the same pricing.
Hydra Alien will be going up from $999 to $1299 USD and Float System will be going up from $1199 to $1349 USD. The price changes will go into effect on February the 5th.
Tilta claims that new orders will ship out in about 8 weeks. Existing pre-orders will include these improvements.
