As someone that works in the tech field, I can tell you that Analog is using a third party commerce platform called Shopify. This is the exact same platform that Rivendell uses. If your currency setting gets changed on another site that uses Shopify its possible it could maintain that accidenta

Nick, I believe your currency setting on the Analog website is set to Australian dollars Ok, that explains it. Though it's rather misleading for a US website that I've not previously visited to automatically show me the price not in $US with no indication of whose dollars unless I scroll to

Nick, I believe your currency setting on the Analog website is set to Australian dollars; I got $693 when I plugged in AUD. Scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page and reset it to US dollars and it should show $445 USD. ~MarkKailua, HIOn Feb 9, 2024, at 11:20, Nick Payne wrote:On Saturd

Well THIS thread went to the bad place in a basket you hold by the hand. I see $445 at Analog as well. Nice cranks, Analog and Peter White are great sellers, buy them at one of those places! Joe "I've called Peter for an order, I hate talking on the phone and he was super easy to talk to" Berna

Weird. Analog's price shows as $445 for me. All configurations. On Friday, February 9, 2024 at 4:20:18 PM UTC-5 Nick Payne wrote: > On Saturday 10 February 2024 at 12:20:24 am UTC+11 Andy Beichler wrote: > > When I add the prices you listed for Peter White's site, I get a $10 > savings. Did I m

I didn't mean for this thread to go in this direction - it was a simple PSA. To be clear, I believe both Peter @ Peter White Cycles and James @ Analog Cycles have been amazing resources for all of us, both in terms of knowledge but also for the work they do at their shops. Buy your cranks whe

A couple of thoughts on this. 1) These cranks are gorgeous. Seeing them in person will make you lust after them 2) Analog's price includes labor to assemble the crankset 3) If you buy these why not buy them from great people at one of the best shops in the US. On Friday, February 9, 2024 at 8

I added up the exact parts Analog uses from the PW site and it came out $5 more. Analog does all of the assembly as well which is not a huge deal but even small bits of time are worth something. So Analog has the better deal by a tiny amount. I put a NOS TA Zephyr on my Proto-Gallop. Such a bea

That's some fuzzy math. ;-) The Analog price seems to be in line with the market. Although, I think the Rivendell Silver cranksets are a good value for an excellent product. Doug On Friday, February 9, 2024 at 8:20:24 AM UTC-5 Andy Beichler wrote: > When I add the prices you listed for Peter Wh

When I look at Peter White's website, he sells a pair of Carmina crankarms for $243, spider for $92, and a pair of TA chainrings will set you back another $100 or so. That's around a $250 saving over the Analog Cycles price... Nick Payne -- You received this message because you are subscribed
