Grivel GX LT T-Matic Evo Black, New-Matic

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I ran the GX LT on a ski mountaineering objective in the Wasatch where the approach demanded crampons for a short stretch and then they needed to disappear into my pack for the rest of the day. The Bi-Fold Bar is genuinely clever, it folds down small enough that you stop noticing the extra weight entirely, and the 10 steel points performed exactly as well as I needed them to on firm morning snow. For fast and light objectives where crampons are a tool and not the main event, these are the ones."Fast and light mountaineering asks you to make hard choices about what earns a place in your pack, and the Grivel GX LT Hybrid Dual Crampon was designed to make that decision easy. Ten steel points deliver reliable traction on snow and alpine terrain without the bulk or penalty of a heavier technical crampon, and the compact geometry keeps your movement efficient even when the route demands sustained time on your feet. At 704g for the pair, you are carrying real performance without the weight that slows you down on long approaches. The standout feature is the exclusive Bi-Fold Bar system, which allows the crampon to fold down into a genuinely packable form while preserving the precision and rigidity of a full steel linking bar once it is on your boot. That is a meaningful distinction on days when crampons go on for a single steep section and spend the rest of the time in your pack. Proactive Antibott front and rear sheds snow buildup with every step, and the Grivel Crampon System allows for interchangeable components so you can configure the GX LT precisely for your objective. CE EN 893 and UIAA 153 certified and sized from European 36 to 47, this is the crampon that keeps up when the pace is high and the margins are thin.
