A classic 12-point mountaineering crampon for general purpose mountaineering and ice climbing up to Scottish IV/V. It will fit boots up to size EU50.
It comes in two versions:
Leverlock Universel: is for boots with a good heel welt and has the option of a full step in binding and a semi step in binding - both are included.
Flexlock: is a modern strap on crampon for boots that do not have a heel welt.
- Thinner frame reduces weight.
- Twelve points ensure maximum traction in all conditions, whether you are climbing up steep slopes or ice couloirs.
- The length of the points is designed for maximum stability without having to high-step.
- Sharp points for great purchase in ice.
- Two wide front points for purchase in snow, reinforced for rigidity.
- Second row of teeth angled towards the front for support when front-pointing.
- Third row of points to optimize bite on hard snow slopes.
- Four teeth for stability while descending facing downhill.
- Lateral points for purchase while traversing.
The linking bar can be set for flexible or semi-rigid modes to adapt the crampon to flexible or rigid boots. Anti-balling plates (antibots) are included.
Boot sizes: sizes 36 to 50.
Certifications: CE, UIAA.
Weight/pair: Leverlock Universel c 845g full step in, c 875g semi step; Flexlock c 895g.
Please note that we have found that the heel is too narrow to fit well on wide high altitude mountain boots such as the Spantic, for which the Grivel G12 or Airtech are better choices.
