Crampons for La Sportiva Trango

Hey everybody, I need some advice. I bought a pair of La Sportiva Trango last season, love 'em. Now I want to pair them with some new crampons. So, question; What crampons make the best fit with my boot?

Was previously wearing LL Bean Speed Guides with BD Contact. The LL Beans just kind of discintigrated on me last year so I replaced 'em with the Trangos. And althought I like the Contacts, they dont fit my new boot as well and were kind of a pain in the ass last season.

I'm willing to spend a little more on a new pair of crampons than I did on the Contacts and have been looking at the Grivel models. I do quite a bit of easy/moderate alpine and peak-bagging and very little vertical ice(U-Notch, V-Notch, St Jeans, ect).

Any advice would be appriciated.

I have a pair of La Sportiva Trangos and love them good choice. As for crampons, I use Grevil G12 for general alpine and the G14 for Steep Ice. Sound like the G12 will suite you fine and I really like how they handle most situations. Plus I find that Grevil has some of the better anti balling plates out there.

I also have G12s and Trangos. Fit is perfect.
