UPS is bringing a single speed IRO cross frame I'll be setting up with mustache

So, what's a good, solid, nonexpensive, non-boat-achor pedal nowadays?

I'm sure Christophe will still have straps for me,
So, what'd you expect from a tiger.

MKS Sylvan in Road (looks like a 1037) Track (looks like a 1038) or the
wider Tour. Tough and cheap.

O.K., those are not Campy quality, but gawdamighty, the MKS are cheap.
I think I was paying that much for plausible SR knock-offs back in the
80s. -- Jay Beattie.

All good choices, however; if you plan to run without toe clips, at
all, only the first of the suggestions, the Silvan touring pedal is
symetrical. Why ride a one-sided pedal if you're not going to be
running clips? The bottom side is not particularly comfortable or
safe. YMMV
