Speaking of which: MKS is now making (or maybe has been and VO just recently stocked) an updated version of the rubber topped pedal:
http://www.velo-orange.com/mks30rublpe.html I have a great set of the white Lyotard version of these. I am somewhat reluctant to use mine, however, as it has proven difficult to find new old stock versions. Seems with the more pedestrian components, no one ever thought about saving a few copies for posterity. It is easier to find new old stock Campy 50th Anniversary quills than Lyotard rubber pedals in white.
