The SP-11 pedals are my favorite “vintage” pedals! I have a set of SP-11s with the King Cage clips and some KKT straps on my Trek 720. I probably should try the half-clips- I never tighten my straps anyway. The MKS vesrsion of the clips are lighter than the King Cage version- they also are more adjustable side to side.
MKS makes the “Urban Platform” pedal which is pretty much a direct copy of the SP-11. White Industries also have a SERIOUSLY upscale version- I have a set of those, a set of King Cage clips and Brooks straps for an upcoming build!

These worked well too. I don’t remember the model. Smoothed the races and replaced nice bearings.

It does seem to say GR9 on the spindle. Looks like nice pedals.
I have the urban platforms on my Batavus, they are great with the half-clips and the EZY-superior system makes it easier to travel.

Those are nice. I was thinking in addition to the GR9 thing they had some other name. Too long ago. Nice looking bike btw.
