Jim, I'm interested in what you said about the 'fancy' pedals w/ sealed bearings, nice machining etc. and I was wondering if you could turn me onto some specific models. I am very interested in the White Industries pedal, but what's holding me back is the need for a cage or even Powergrip. I would like pedals that are going to last a good long time, have superb bearings and generally support the practice of wearing whatever shoes to ride. I like to ride in sandals, and that wouldn't be so much fun with any sort of strap/clip.
