Black Diamond Camalot Ultralight Review

The Black Diamond Camalot Ultralights are the lightest double axle cam on the market and cut 25% weight from their popular C4 predecessors. A spacious, featured thumb loop and wide trigger bar make them easy to place and remove. The traditional metal cable stem is replaced with lightweight Dyneema while other elements of the cam have been pared down to shed grams. With those weight savings come some concern about durability and a 10 year lifespan for the cam along with a stiffer stem and sling that caused them to be less stable than other double axle cams tested.
