WTB: 1 Campagnolo Superleggeri-style pedal dustcap
For the first time since 1994, I lost a bit off one of my bikes. Last time it was a Campy 50th Anniversary crank dust cap; this time it's a plastic pedal dust cap from a pair of Campy Superleggeris. Anyone have a spare they can shoot my way? I have a couple/three spares - back in WA - but I'm in AZ for at least another week. I consider this a show-stopper as dirt/dust is gonna kill the outer race in no time while riding here.
Alternate idea: lend me a spare, NOS one and I'll ship one exactly like it back to you once I am back from vacation.
I'd go Ebay but only need the one, so not wanting to pay an arm and a leg for a pair I don't need.

Thanks, Van - you're a lifesaver. Once I get back to WA (after the smoke clears, I hope!) I will shoot one of my spares back to you. PM inbound.

Gonna be a rider one, I have managed to lose and trash several nice ones lately.
Scratch that, sending a nice one.

If either of you is willing to sell a rider quality pair of caps (or worse), I'm interested and not in a particular rush. Just let me know how much.

If you can find then the Gipeme caps work as well. Smiles, MH

I have sets of Gipiemme, Ofmega, Miche and Campagnolo pedals that are all nearly identical save for the names stamped on them. Of course I can use interchangeable stuff, but it's always nice when the names match, right?

I always wondered why Allen fittings weren’t used for pedal caps...

True, but what if it doesn't even match what is stamped on the pedal plate? Plus, I will know, so the OCD alarm bells will be ringing in my ears non-stop. I'm mostly kidding, and I know it really isn't a big deal, but isn't part of the C&V fun hunting things down to get them right?

Edit, nope, crank caps. Man.
I should think pedals would get too much grit in them in a very short time. Too much spray from the tires.
