You have to understand that it was machined on a c.n.c machining center out of solid billet aluminum, I am guessing out 6061-t6. The real reason it cost so much is because of all the cutouts in it (triangles) that takes more time. It also doesn't do a lot for stiffness compared to one that is solid. I am guessing they did this to save weight.
