Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.Rhodabike

I was going to post this on the over-50 forums because I felt sure a cyclist would have to be close to my age (52) to even remember them. (There can't have been many of us who actually bought these things, I thought to myself.)
Then I thought Classic and Vintage would be the place, perhaps under a "Weird orphan bike bits" thread.
But, to my astonishment, Aerolite pedals are still made.
I can still remember the feeling of blind panic I had as my feet started sliding off them sideways in the middle of a points race on the track. Not to mention the sensation of stomping on an steel re-bar at the end of longer road rides.
And here I was going to donate them to a Museum of Poorly Thought Out Bike Parts, if I could find one. :lol:
