CR-ers,

I picked up a mystery bike at a local swap this weekend and I'm trying to identify parts. (I'll try to get pics of the re-paint frame, etc. tomorrow with better light)

I've looked around the web a bit this evening, but have not been able to determine what these pedals are. Does anyone recognize them? I haven't removed them from the bike yet and I don't see any obvious markings other that what may be a logo of some sort in the cage. The are serviceable and have an oiler hole.

The bike was converted to a three-speed and had a lugged road frame with semi- wrap-around seat stays, moderately ornate lugs, no braze-ons except for BB cable guides, chainstay cable stop, and pump pegs. It was sporting a 1954 S/A AW three-speed hub, FB steel front hub with Reynolds alloy wingnuts, narrow alloy rims with a raised center section, Stronglight "Touriste" alloy cranks (yay! -- single chainring though), Ambrosio stem, unknown as-of-yet shorty upright alloy bars, BMX grips, Weinmann tourist levers, MAFAC Dural Forge calipers. Including a huge Messinger padded sprung saddle, a steel rear rack and a speedometer, the bike weighs less than the mid-70s Nishiki Professional (with Bullseye hubs) that I also bought. Both bikes were $30 each. :-)

Let me know if you know anything on the pedals!

Thanks,
