If you look in the latest Colorado Cyclist catalog or here you'll find a Look licensed version of the Eggbeater with "high-quality needle bearings and an aerospace-tolerance cromoly spindle to reduce friction". Looks nice, except for the price - $140!

Appears they're paying Crank Bros. for the right to use the pedals and slap their own name on it?
Why would they make the price so much more expensive though? You can get Eggbeaters for $80 at some places!

Silly rabbit.

"high-quality needle bearings and an aerospace-tolerance cromoly spindle to reduce friction"

Only problem with the current ones is the bushing quality. I'd like to try this version.

Sort of like the Grimeca/Shimano XT idsc brake?

Sweet - I'll bet Crank Bros make just as much for every Look set sold as they do for their own.
