Northwave Centurion / Adapter plates
I would like to know if anyone owned or still have the Northwave Centurion model road shoe, they come with adapter plates . Would like to look at the 4 hole plates on both sides, as it looks I may have to make 'em , because I am having difficulty finding a set ...even from the company. So if you have a set , could you please forward some pics. Thank you

The Centurion was my first pair of road shoes. I looked the Northwave adapter/shim mentioned in the early Speedplay installation instructions (around 2004) but never found one. At this point you'd be better off buying a new pair of shoes. The current Speedplay cleats come with a good 3-hole adapter. Sidi, Lake, and DMT make native 4-hole shoes, or get some new Northwave shoes that can use the adapter linked above (I'm happy with it).

I have a couple of pairs , I bought the Centurions on Ebay..practically new on a good deal , thinking the holes would match; but then later I found out they require an adapter . I know what it looks like on the outside , just trying to see what the adapters look like under. I know I can make them out of nylon , just some reference needed
