In reply to Anonymous: theyl be safe if u mean that. as they will have to be (uiaa?) tested.

they might not be the lightest, but the lightest crab was dodgy, so cant see nething wrong with them, especialy at only 4.25

I've got some. They are 'alright'. I think I've fallen on one, so it must be rated ok. However, they are the first to get left behind when I don't think I'll need my full compliment on a route. (A bit heavy compared to the rest).

Fcuk it - I payed £9 each for 10 of them when i started climbing. The crabs are excellent - not as smooth as your 13 quid a go mambas or wotever, but smooth enough - the bent gate is very easy to clip, think its cos its got a quite extreme bend in the gate.
