How about these NOS Gipiemme track pedals, French thread? French seller, but very reasonable shipping to US.

Ok, so I'm building up a pretty sweet Faggin frame for a friend, pretty much all period parts (Campy and other Italian makes). I got to the pedals, and got a minor shock: the Gipiemme cranks I bought for this puppy have French threads!

So, I put some Atom 700s on it for now, but would like to get something better/different...something more in keeping with the overall build. Does anybody have a set of pedals that they'd like to unload that would work well and look right? Campagnolo NR road or spindles for same would probably be my first choice. I have plenty of Campy pedals I could turn into French threaded ones if somebody had a pair of raw spindles they could spare.

I think I could also see putting Lyotard 23s on it, but she might not go for it.

Thanks!
