How do they hold up? I'm asking because my brother bought Ofmega's CX quill pedals back in the 80's and unfortunately, they were terrible and just kind of fell apart on him. I remember him taking off the black plastic bearing cover caps (exactly like you have on those pedals) to service them and we could not get them to stay on after reinstalling them, no matter what we did. He ended up losing both of them wihich resulted in his outoard bearings and races wwearing out prematurely because dirt got into them all the time.

I remember these Avocet pedals. No experience on how well they'll hold up, but there are Asian knock offs of this design that looks like a dead ringer. Stumbled across a pair in a box of parts and thought they were Avocets. They have black body and clips.
