Marcelo disc frame

Just ran across this. Looks like it was put on the web today.

I get the logic of this, makes sense from a business perspective, but that doesn't mean I have to like it. That's a lovely bike but the rim brake models just look so much nicer to my eye.

a Peg with disc brakes AND Shimano Di2?!?! someone's head is about to go boom!

looks nice, I like the downtube graphics..

edit- I hadn't realized Peg already had some disc bikes from the other models already out.. nice!

Looks nice in a disc version!

Killer bike

Would love to ride the crap out of that rig!! Killer bike!!

Gorgeous! I definitely think Pegs are ‘supposed to’ have rim brakes, but now it looks like a better version of 95% of all disc bikes out there, has better braking, and rides like a dream, I am sure .

Grailsville!!

They already had the Round Disc and Respo Disc, and Duende Disc / Gravel — this just completes the list (minus a Luigino or DID disc, lolz).

This just moved into my top position of most-wanted bikes. Ciavete F/F. SR12 WRL. Bora Ultra C23s. And Columbus finishing kit. Mama Mia.

HARD pass on the graphics they came up with for this though..

Funny. I saw this almost exact build on the road this past week. Ciavete is always stunning in person, and in sunlight.

I believe it was a Mercello or Round Disc yes.

I was in street clothes and the owner was with a small group of people. I was a bit embarrassed to approach them and pop a pic and say hello. Didn't help that I had no idea what language they might speak fluently, and my Italiano is abysmal

Next up, sloping top tubes.

JUST KIDDING.
