They are so dorky I think I tossed a worn pair into the scrap bin

Oops.

Good riddance to poorly thought out rubbish if you ask me

They can be recycled into a frying pan.

The Phil Woods look slippery. I'd choose Nabby's bent wire straps over them 100% of the time

For those who wanted something maybe better than Campag there was Sunfour and Shimano.

And for pedals there was Kyokuto Pro Ace

Early campagnolo SRG clip less pedals.i did own a pair when they first came out A nightmare to get your foot out of.

I'll admit to being a bit of a pedal fetishist.

I recently acquired these, which I'd been lusting after for quite a while. The Spécialités T.A. ref 4690:

Are they as good as they say? I'm impressed by the design, sealed bearings I believe and they look like they would take a proper beating

I haven't used them yet, but even if I had I doubt I would have been able to give you a useful answer. Most of my bikes are already equipped with nice pedals from the likes of Lyotard, Campagnolo, MKS, Zeus and Miche. They all work well, and I don't think I am going to wear out or break any of them in this lifetime.

That said, the T.A.'s look gorgeous, feel great and make the nicest paperweights ever.
