Description

From vertical ice routes in Switzerland to hard alpine mixed routes in the Canadian Rockies, the Black Diamond Cyborg crampon is our high-end ice and mixed climbing crampon. Built with a semi-rigid stainless steel construction, the Cyborg's versatile design can be converted from dual- to mono-point, and the hooded vertical frontpoints provide solid bite on everything from tenuous ice blobs to horizontal rock edges. The Cyborg's light and durable stainless steel design won't rust, resists snow balling and is free from toxic coatings that wear off in the mountains.

Distinctive stainless steel construction doesn't rust, is more durable, resists snow balling and saves weight
Low-profile micro-adjust heel lever offers precision fit
Adjustable, hooded frontpoints and aggressive secondary points
Pro version accommodates boots with a toe welt

Certification

Certifications

The main climbing gear certifications are CE and UIAA--and normally the UIAA creates the rules that the CE body also supports. When possible, we try to list all the certifications the product carries.

To sell a climbing product in Europe, the device must be CE certified. There are no official requirements to sell climbing gear in the US. The UIAA certification is a voluntary process.

Familiarity
I’ve used it a bunch

Had these crampons for a full season of frozen waterfalls climbing. No complaints. Solid and gives me confidence in my foot placements. Ankle strap is too long so would recommend cutting that to avoid hangups. 

Fits perfectly on my old plastic scarpa boots (You need the larger toe bail for older double boots tough). 

Rock and Ice Gear Review rating 5/5

As a technical crampon, the Cyborg is excellent, and you'd be pressed to get better performance outside an integrated bolt-on crampon rig (aka fruitboots). Two thumbs up for ice of any sort, rock, ice and rock (alpine climbing!), and even technical mountaineering when you need the precise performance of vertical front-points and are willing to sacrifice some security on snow slopes.

Alpinist Gear Review rating 4/5

Even though stainless steel doesn't create the miracle metal upgrade that one might want, Black Diamond's design and construction still make the newest Cyborg one of the best tools available for hard winter climbing.
Pros: perform well in a variety of climbing conditions; lightweight; low-profile
design; easy to put on and take off.
Con: difficult to switch to monopoint setup.
