If you can find them, a cheap option ar old SR SP-250s. One piece cast track style pedals.

here's a pic of what i bought

like i said, they're super light (235gr a pair), have a nice wrenching option (no 15mm flats, use a crank bolt allen wrench). spindle is hardened crmo steel, body is aluminum. broad enough to not create hot spots on your feet like some rat trap pedals, but they're still very narrow (come out from the crank about as far as an mks custom nuevo) plenty of space for double straps. only weird thing is that the clip mounting holes are recessed in this lip, but the toe clips don't fit inside (well, at least my mks clips) but it ends up being functionally great.

i've felt the bearings on the all city pedals most recently posted (the cheap wellgoes, they have an origin8 branded version too) and they feel really ****ty in the package. I have a pair i got used though and those bearings feel pretty nice, so i guess they need time to break in. these however feel like they have much better bearings. they feel a little stiff like a new sealed cartridge hub, but i feel like once these get some miles they'll really spin.

You're correct. They're not sealed and they need time to "break-in."

The cage in the back of the pedal is raised above the rest of the pedal for the track cleat to grab.
