Question for all you Radsters out there, Suntour XCII pedals which are the earlier ones braced or un-braced, what year are we talking for the braced and what year for the un-braced

I am sure one of you fluffy bunnies out there must know

Difficult one this, Suntour had early XC I's with a brace, then they went braceless, then they issued the XCII braceless and then back to a brace. Apparently there is a thread all about it on the BMX Museum site but I don't go there say can't say what they say

i always understood it as braced early, un-braced later? same deal with the screws, suntour on the screws= early and plain screws=later
