Looking for some more technical crampons with vertical front points for alpine ice this season. Previously used Grivel and had good results so thinking perhaps G14, but open to other suggestions. 
not climbing anything super hard, WI4ish. I’ve just got some new phantom Tech so need to fit those, any suggestions?

In reply to echo34:

G14s are quite heavy compared to modern crampons like the dart (300g heavier). The Lynx would be comparable for adaptability and is about 10% lighter.

It doesn't sound like much but I've owned g14s and the latest darts and the latter are significantly better. Ive got a cheap second hand pair of g12s I use for more general mountaineering and walking.
