    Yes the pure race ones are some of the cheapest, you can get them from http://www.superstarcomponents.com ...They also have the least slop (you find on some the seat can wobble a bit left and right although you're hard pushed to notice it on the bike). The main one around over the last couple of years has been the Crank Bros Joplin (previously a Maverick Speedball) you'll find that at ChainReactionCycles and Wiggle if you look I expect and Specialized are due to have one of their own out soon I read somewhere.

    The KS i900 is only 93 euros (plus I think another 10 euros or so postage) from here

    I really like mine but I am having a slight problem with it going down slightly without me pulling the lever.
