You're a gracious man, Nero. Sorry we couldn't both have them. When I saw the price climbing I knew there was another enthusiast in the bidding. If I see another set, I'll message you.Sorry MASB. - looks like I'm still on the same mission you were. The Zender pedals are a very very rare thing indeed. Despite paying a high price, I'm sure you now have a smile on your face knowing y ou have an original accessory others can only dream about.
I'm glad you are enjoying them. But secretly wishing I had bought them
Yes I have the Novitec pedals fitted and although they look extremely smart were not, as far as I'm aware, factory approved. I would be surprised if another Zender set appears again in mint condition, but you never know:lol:Exactly right, Spider.
I bought them - and I hate you Nero! They are the last of the original accessory options that I wanted for my GTV - and the hardest to get at all, never mind in really good nick (and these are in very good nick - almost mint - the rubber studs wear down over 60k or so).
I was working on the day of the auction, so all I could do was stick in a bid as wincingly high as I could bring myself to go (£156) and keep my fingers crossed. And I would have got away with it too if it wasn't for you, pesky Nero.
They are fitted (by my own fair hand), look great (a bit bling but not ripspeedesque ****tery, as Radical likes to say), grip fantastically, and my bella is complete, for the price of two tanks of gas, so yes, I'm happy. £50 less would have been nice, though, Nero.
Not quite 'another set' as this sale doesn't include the foot rest.
It's only because Zender ceased production in 2004 and rarity adds value I suppose.
I know, as soon as he picked them up I thought to myself I shouldn't of sold those !! I'm a little gutted I let them go, but Paul will enjoy them on his car and I see him often :thumbs:
Got to be honest I only said that as I would have bought them myself. Had a set, sold them, what a silly thing to do I said to myself the other day. 52 years old and still learning:lol::lol:
