The Edelrid Nineteen G quickdraws

To summarise: these are ideal if you are shaving weight, for instance Alpine use or super long multi-pitch routes when weight is more important or, nowadays, the need to keep within strict budget airline baggage allowances. I read somewhere that these are, ‘These are a bit like Marmite – you’ll either love or hate them. Me, well I don’t like Marmite but I do love these small wonders’. Well for me that sums it up nicely and yes when lightweight is key they are excellent, however, they may not be for everyone or, dare I say it, for everyday use when a more substantial quickdraw set may make more sense.
