mks esquarts 107 pedals

Pulled these from a 84 team fuji last year. Do not see this model much, but still I realize value is pretty limited. Probably worth keeping around for the team if ever resold though I doubt that will happen. Cool that the leather straps are still good to go. One clip looks worse than other. Note I did ride on these for 50 mile jaunt once before switching them out.

Yes, best to just keep them. They're hard to sell due to the funky clips and attchaments. Even if you have the clips, buyers are reluctant in case they damage a clip and can't find replacements.

Hey daily commute: I have esquartz 102's from an '86 Miyata 710. Unfortunately the pedals are missing the toe clips and the non-drive side dust cap. If you change your mind about keeping the 107's let me know. Thanks.

I have a set of 107s in my pedal drawer. I think they came off a late 70s Centurion Super LeMans. The toe clips are a different style than the ones the OP attached. They do say MKS on them.

There really isn't a big market for used pedals unless there Campy or pre 70's in good condition. These are probaly best as keepers to use on another bike. Even with the clips and straps I don't see one getting more than $15-20 for these on ebay.

I just checked ebay for Esquartz 107 that sold. There was 1 pair. They went for $75. Suntour Superbe Pro and Sprint don't go cheap. There are others out there that hold their value.

My Saris Bones dumped my bike on the Interstate at 80mph. It landed on the handle bar and my Esquartz107 pedal. It completely scraped down my left cage bracket. Do you still have these pedals?
