18m. The top peg and top 8mm bolt have both been replaced with new 12mm stainless bolts. There is also a new double-ring abseil.b This has been retro bolted on a slightly different line.

βeta: The sport line stays tight to the right hand side of bolts 3 and 4 and doesn't use the crack of the original to the left or any holds on Paiste 2002 until the routes join at the fifth bolt. Not sure it is harder for the short, there's plenty of holds.

βeta: reading the comments below I can confirm that, as a shorter climber, this is 7b all day long. I've climbed easier 7b+s!!

βeta: Finally went. Need crag mod to update but if you use crack on the left between bolts 3 and 4 as the picture as a trad route suggests, then it's probably 7a. If you stay direct from right under bolt 3 to bolt 5 it's atleast 7a+ maybe even a low b. Cool route.

βeta: On the new bolt line, climbing direct past the 3rd and 4th bolts avoiding Zildjan and the bottom of Paiste to join Paiste at the 5th bolt involves a hard sequence and a hard (4th) clip. Probably 7b?

βeta: This has now been turned into a sport climb but it's unclear what is in and what is not. After the 2nd bolt, staying right makes it 7a+, maybe even a low b. Going up left and transferring right or if you're tall, going up left and following the curve up before you join Paiste 2002 probably only makes it 7a. Short climbers beware.

βeta: I think it is a solid 7a+ (the way I did it, it may be even harder for shorter climbers)

βeta: This has now been fully retrobolted and is probably a 7a/+?
