Side note affecting "best ever" category.... Despite Barelli having made a deluxe and attractive pedal set, they did have an Achilles heel. The versions designed for normal slotted pedal cleats and having alloy cage plate were rather insubstantial (Possibly too soft aluminum alloy selected for this application?) and lacked the stamping that Campagnolo had, so that in use those plates bent and deformed almost immediately. The rest of the pedal was superb. And the Barelli version with the stainless steel sides & top for special Barelli block cleats was the best.
