I've never tried Keywin pedals, but there are a few people out there still who like and use them today.
I didn't get the cleats of course, now wondering if I could scare up a pair.
I took note of Dylansbob's note about my reaction at the store. I was actually wearing a cardiac data acquisition device at the store at the time(!), and it would be interesting to download except that I can't access it's data, only the medical company who reports to my doctor can do that.
Definitely some good-vibe electricity was generated however.
My local thrift stores can turn up gems, but something like this might be once in a lifetime of frequent visits. You just never know, much like going to a casino (or to an ostensibly "singles" bar for that matter).
Finally got around to changing the handlebar and yet another stem swap yesterday, worked well on today's 42-mile morning ride and my vintage Cinelli yellow/red marble tape brightened it up.
