I feel that pedals are as important as any bottom bracket or hub. It revolves the same revolutions as the bottom bracket. Since have converted to clipless on my bikes, I don't use platforms any more but my favorite have always been Campy record pedals. They have great quality spindles, bearings and races, and are adjustable and serviceable. This isn't too helpful since they aren't made any more and would need to be purchased used. But mine have more than 40,000 miles and still feel great.
