Jerry, thanks for the info. Just to clarify, the Maillard pedals didn't come on the Centurion. I can't remember where I got them. The Centurion came with 600 pedals, which have toe clips but also require a shoe cleat. But since I don't have the right shoes, I threw the Maillard pedals on it for now.
