I applaud your candor. Whether we are in pursuit of knowledge or unbridled commerce, the transaction and our basest ambitions are ultimately the same. Yet rarely are we so honest with ourselves and the other party in this exchange.

I wish you well in your attempts to acquire bicycle goods from the others who frequent this Web site.

Welcome :)

What bike(s) are you going to put the stuff on?

(an opportunity to get a few more posts to your name)

You sure it's the Peg that's holding you back? ;)

wow. Fellow SoCal person. Ride the hell out of that Peg. I miss mine, even though it didn't fit.

I’m 100% sure it’s NOT the peg that’s holding me back.
It’s the saddle obviously. :wink:

Hello Lastplace,

Here, Werner is saying that the most fundamental aspect of our existence - the need to belong to a Tribe - has been overly commodified.

Werner is interested in your thoughts however, and feels they should fetch a fair market price. He would offer you a penny for them, but due to recent austerity measures, that is perhaps too aspirational.

Therefore, he would like to offer you a Thai Bhat.

Enjoy riding on that sweet Pegoretti, @Lastplace. Welcome to The Paceline Forum.

Currently worth 3 pennies, according to Google.

The Last shall be first pal, whatever you do, just don't ask what the fastest speed or the kind of wattage a world Champion nine-year-old should put out...you will be fine.

No, I'm sure that Dario would tell you it's the no-setback seatpost.
Welcome and good luck.

If you get black bar wrap and a new saddle, you're sure to get a PR in no time!
