I love the Marcel Bertet pedal design but hate there poor quality. I bent the axles when I was a 125lb gear pusher.
I also lament the passing of Bicycleville which David Feldmen mentioned. It was a very large dark garage filled with 70's bikes new and used as well as prototypes bikes he said he developed for others. I saw a Confente, Hurlows, Dardenne's, condor, phillips, raleigh, motobecane, stella, bates, and many others last year just before he packed up becuaue of tripling rent.
