They are things of beauty though.

I think I paid about £25 for steel axled ball bearing jobs back in the day.

That guy's taking the piss. He wants another 8 quid for postage!

I had a pair of those too, steel ones though. Pretty ferocious when you slipped

I seem to remember a thread over on Vintage BMX where someone had unearthed a consignment of NOS Hutch pedals - I guess if they're not willing to part with any though, the ones on ebay will still fetch mega bucks. I had a pretty similar (and I'd imagine) possibly less common, pair of Primo beartraps which I fitted with Onza ti axles and used on my [url= http://mamadirt.fotopic.net/p8457721.html ]Kona Roast back in the early 2Ks[/url] - ebayed them thinking they'd fetch a bit and they went for around £25 then ended up costing me an arm and a leg to post to Ireland 🙁

I have a pair in a drawer that I recently got off a bike given to a friend. She didn't like the look of them, so she replaced them with rubber pedals and I took them off her hands. They will go on my 1983 Ritchey.
