We currently stock the G12 in the following binding systems:
New Matic: Toe cup and heel clip- This is the best system for the majority of users, as it is by far the easiest to put on in reality, (i.e when out of the comfort of your home).This system is only suitable for B2 boots with a rear welt.
Cramp O Matic: Full step in, wire toe bail and heel clip- This system gives a clean front end of the boot as the wire bail is very low profile . It is very good for those intending on doing more mixed climbing as the wire toe bail is more hard-wearing. This is slightly more fiddly than the other systems to set up initially but is very secure when fitted properly. The Cramp O Matic Binding System also gives the most adjustment as the front welt can be moved back and forth. This system is only suitable for fully rigid (B3) boots with a front and rear welt.
