Well, having had my Bike (which had those exact Pedals and Straps) stolen not too long ago, I couldn't bare to take them off you for £51.
SO.... for whatever it may be worth to you...?
I'm a mechanic at a bike shop in London (Islington) and would be somewhat indebted to you if you let me take them for £55?
Having a mechanic friend with unlimited access to a workshop and all of the tools in it (with multiple qualifications and 13+ years experience using them) is hard to put a price on.
On top of this, I may be able to get you certain products (within reason) at Trade (Cost) price or at least with a considerable discount off of the Manufacturer's recommended retail price (RRP).
Any experienced cyclist will agree with the fact that having a friend who works in a bike shop (especially a mechanic!) is invaluable!
I've just put a deposit on a new flat with my Girlfriend so I genuinely can't afford to offer you more (I shouldn't really even be buying treats such as these for myself right now but I've wanted to replace these so badly ever since they got stolen that my girlfriend is allowing me to make an exception in this case). So, if the whole "I.O.U" thing appeals to you then I'll take em for sure!
