Nice pedals.  I've seen some New Schoolers that have a similar design with offset platforms, but not the originals ACS ones.

I have seen them in the adverts though.   

Have you tried them yet?

I've just got some pedals from the States 2 days ago.    There not new but there in a good state.

I used to love my black grafight-X's BITD.

No duty either.  Always go with USPS never UPS (They suck!!!!)

A bike shop I used to work in had 'undreds of them. In blue and in red.
They are really quite big so I never tried them out.

I will pop in and see if they still have any left.
