I read the forums a lot, but finally decided to register so that I could ask a question about some recently acquired Wellgo pedals. I'm wondering if they should be called Wontgo pedals because they don't spin. I guess it's true you get what you pay for.

I'm a Bay Area rider, prefer road riding, and favor Italian stuff.

Hello abc80, wellgo=wontgo

:roflmao:

That's funny....I see you found the Northern California regional forum. That's a good bunch of folks there, and you should be able to find at least one or two members who can help you sort out the will/wontgo aspect :D .

What kind of Italian bike have you got?

Welcome to BF!

My Italian bike is a Pogliaghi Italcorse. I've owned it since 1980, and replaced a few items (brake levers, wheels, pedals, saddle, bar tape) with period correct items from eBay.
I originally owned a Guerciotti, which cracked, so the Guerciotti pantoned chainring, seatpost, and stem are on my "Pogliotti".

Have I suggested the Classic & Vintage forum as an excellent place to show off photos of your bike yet?

If not, consider yourself invited over there :D .
