Vintage ASOLO EXTREME Boots
According to the original owner (90+ years old), he bought them in the 1950’s.

Could be worn on your motorcycle for a real retro or punk look.
Who wouldn't trust a 90+ years old guy?

I have looked at that plate setup dozens of times..
And I just don't know why no one has bought at
that price! :lol: :lol:
Various CRB's will accept lots of bindings
through those adapter plates..
You think it's funny ? Well the plates have gone away
at Voile, so there's none to be had though they are still
listed on the site! The adapter plates go for 40 bux for
the 2, brand new..I would collect a couple of
the binding adapters, the rest of that stuff is of no interest
..have boxes of parts.. :)
The bindings ? good for XCD..
Do you really need the release for XCD? Arguably not..
I suppose it's all worth maybe 50 bux..

Yeah that guy has been listing the bindings for over 2 years now. He really thinks he's got something there... Well, it is kind of unique... : )

I bought a box of 5 pairs of release plates + bindings for 15$ on ebay... Too heavy for XCD in my opinion... I just drilled 3 holes into the bindings instead and voila...!

You don't have any of the adapter plates you wish to part with ?

Pretty sure I sold them all... But let me check...

Adapter plates... You mean the whole thing except the binding?

No no..just the shiny little silver plates that the bindings screw on to (3 tiny screws) so
they can pop down in the CRB..

Oh I know the plates you're talking about... But the ones I had were the ones with the whole binding going in the spring thing... That's why I drilled 3 holes on all of them, so I could mount them straight on the skis...

How did you (accurately) locate the holes to drill them ? I have a couple of those too..
