Cyborg mono conversion

Remove the bolt with provided tools or a socket and allen.

Remove the plates and then allow the spacers to slide out from the plates.

You want to cut a slot for your monopoint below the big toe of the crampon you are modifying.In this image, I am modifying the right foot crampon. I used a dremel to cut away the pre-marked slot.

Here is what the plate looks like after the slot is cut out. Make sure you cut back far enough otherwise the point wont slot in correctly.

Put the plate back onto the crampon and put the provided conversion spacers into the plate.

From here, you will want to use the conversion bolt as it is shorter and you no longer need the length of the original bolt.

Finished product.

Thank you for this guide Jake! It's the only one I could find on the internet. 

Question: Do you recommend any other cutting tools for making the notch? 

Thanks

Any sharp knife will do, I've cut mine with an utility knife, the plastic/rubber is soft and easy to cut 

I used a sharp utility knife when I did mine. I also left the plastic piece attached in case I decide that monos aren’t for me. 

Some people make a big deal out of doing this, I think it took me 5 mins for each crampon. Run stingers now but cyborgs are a great option if you aren’t sure whether you want to run mono or dual.

Also Brent what function does that little plastic piece you left on serve besides it just waiting to be ripped off to leave a bit of trash? Aesthetic? Or do you think it affects the performance of the anti-balling plate? Genuinely curious.

Colton,

I don’t think it really serves any purpose. I probably should just cut it the rest of the way off. 

Where did you get the conversion bolt?
