I usa La Sportiva Nepals and wonder if it is problem using the flexible front toe instead of the bail wire. For some reason I like the extra security of the strap going through the toe also. However to fit right, I would have to grind down a bit of the side of the boot. Do you think this is an issue? Also I have notice that when using with the above boot and dual points when looking at the front centerline of the boot/crampon the points are not symetric does that make sense. Charlie
