Yep, duckets are dollars. Sorry, maybe it's not as universal a term as I thought.

I've had this bike for years, just gathering dust in the garage. I never dreamed that I would like riding as much as I have, so I didn't want to invest too much in it. Now that I have gotten into it, I'm having a ball and will likely upgrade to a new ride at some point.

Great tip! Thanks.
