Campagnolo Croce D'aune Pedal Trouble
I have a set of these beautiful pedals, unfortunately one is broken. While riding I had a pedal strike and the outside triangular strap loop broke off. I took it to several machine shops hoping that they could do something to fix it but unfortunately they could not. This pretty much renders my left pedal as junk... I am now looking for a left pedal as a replacement. Wondering if anyone has a spare left that I could buy off of them. Please let me know. Also let me know if this is the wrong thread for this sort of thing. Thanks!

You might get better reslts on the C&V fourm https://www.bikeforums.net/forumdispl...ic-amp-Vintage
A heavyweight zip tie might get you back in action.

Having ridden similar pedals forever I have a suggestion - run the strap through the openings in the plate. So under the outside body (as it runs now), then, if you're looking at the picture, run the strap to the right, through the left opening, in the right opening, then through the body and up. It'll be tight but it works. I used to run my straps like that when I had two straps on each pedal.
This will keep the strap from moving laterally, keep it from hanging too far down down under the pedal, and prevent it from going too far forward under the body. The opening when you clip in will be slightly different than what you're used to but it'll work.
Two small zip ties (crossed over the strap so it doesn't push it one way or another) should keep the strap from hanging too, but the cage method will work with no extra bits.

Wow and I thought my 1990 Campy C-Record stuff was old. Will never deny the aesthetic beauty of campy.
Good Luck
