I am a couple months in to getting adjusted to my road bike (Fui Finest 1.0, craigslist special!) and ready to move into clipless.

After an endless search for tiny person shoes, I picked up a pair of Sidi's on ebay. They came with adapter plates and I went to assemble today... only 3 of 4 holes lined up. What am I doing wrong? Did I just get bunk adapter plated with my ebay purchase? You can see the adapater plates are Sidi brand, so I am stumped.

Any suggestions?

I am thinking of taking to my local bike shop but I am worried they will want to machine a larger top whole, which would compromise the integrity of the adapter plate. helps.
