Next, Holdsworth Allez quill pedals, for my money the best British pedals ever made, smooth running, lightweight and very easy to service.

Thought I would start a thread about that most overlooked part of the drive chain: the pedals. Here are my most favourite pedals of all...

Found a few more beauties from the 40th anniversary catalogue, there was a whole range of clothing too. The carbon effect rims are a new...

Ganolo, France. Love the way the gear cable pops out of the curved seat tube.
