I just purchased a pair of NF S6K Extreme and I am looking for a set of crampons to paire them with for general mountaineering, White Mountains for now (G12, Saberthoot and Vasak came to mind). Then realized that although the Lynz is not suited for general mountaineering ... What if you shorten the front point or even more removed them all together??? Would they be suited and comfortable for long approach? After all Hillsound does not have front points and do a reasonably good job most of the time...
Is it easier to walk with the basket than it is with the toe bail?
Btw this is my first post!!!!
