    My two favorites are:

    Lambda/Grip King pedals. Verrrrrry sexy, classic, and stylish. They have dimpled spikes rather than adjustable spikes, but you can drill into the dimples and insert spikes if you so desire. I just ride on the dimples, haven't felt the need to drill for spikes. http://www.rivbike.com/products/show...g-pedal/14-053

    Crank Brothers 5050x. These are BMX pedals. Very butch and modern. You can change color plates to make them match your bike. Completely adjustable spikes, with multiple lead-holes so you can add or subtract spikes. My feet DO NOT MOVE with these pedals. If you customize your spike pattern you can even correct for things like forefoot inversion. While these aren't as classic looking as the Lambdas, they are eminently functional. I have a box of spare spikes in two different lengths, which gives me a lot of room for creativity with the spike pattern. http://www.rei.com/product/768255/cr...-x-flat-pedals The 5050 has been changed, I have no experience with the new model. http://www.crankbrothers.com/pedals_5050.php
