The new design for Rotopax, is there a cost difference? Still around $500?

I believe they're the same cost. Look in the vendor section, there's a thread about them.

Yes there will be a cost difference. Cause the carrier will include the cans as well as the mounting hardware. Yates was giving me some more info on it.

You'll have to talk to Yates about that. But I would imagine there should be.
