Grivel Ran Antislip Ice Spikes
« on: 14:05:20, 05/12/16 »
Just spotted these

http://www.grivelgb.co.uk/products/crampons/ran/

http://www.grivel.com/products/rock/accessories/88-ran



Cheapest place I can find online at the moment is http://www.walkoutdoors.com/grivel-ran @ £22.37 + £2.99 postage (FREE if you spend over £30)

At that price they've got to be serious competition for the Kahtoola ice spikes (the Pogu ice spikes seem to have disappeared from the market)?

I'm pretty sure Grivel wouldn't put their good name and reputation at risk by selling crap?

They look pretty decent - perfect for frozen paths when crampons would really be overkill
I'm on the internet!

Another couple of pics showing them on a boot which is probably a more realistic scenario for their use.

Mine arrived today. Quite impressed.


But somehow I ended up with three pairs. The website threw me out twice cos i couldn't find and tick the terms & conditions. Third attempt i found it but I was in a hurry so I failed to check the basket total.  :-[

Seems they've gone up in price since you first posted about them KB. Still pretty good compared to the cost of Kahtoolas though.


Thinking of ordering a pair, so thanks for the heads up  O0

Happy to do that. By the time I've posted two pairs back and incurred a re-stocking charge, i might as well cut my losses and accept reasonable offers.


Mine are for size 8 to 9 1/2 boots.


If nobody wants them by midweek, I'll arrange to return them.

Ah well. I should have waited. Some you win, some you lose.  :(

Looking at alpinetrek's homepage I think that today only 20% off offer on these ends at 11PM UK time today (midnight their time).
