Steel Biners for replacing worn out gear

[tejas]

Hey, I'm gonna be here in the red for about another 2 weeks, and I'm wanting to replace the worn out biners on omaha beach before I take off. I was hoping to use steel biners so that whatever I put up will last, but I'm not really sure where I can get any around here. I was just wondering if anyone knows where I can get a hold of some before I leave?

Thanks,
Nate Drolet

Seems like Miguels could get them in within that time frame. I can't think of any place that would have the quantity and type you'll need. If you are wanting to get steel bent gates or wires I suspect you'll have to order them.

Contact Isaac at Hoosier Heights in Bloomington, IN. They have an account with Fixe and can get them for a good price and have them dropped shipped to Miguels. isaac@hoosierheights.com

Yeah, if you are going to order from Fixe, do it now. They tend to have a 5+ day "processing time" before your order ships. You know, to put the hangers in the box and such. So if you don't want to spend a small fortune having them overnighted get the order in now.

Yes, I can order from Fixe, but another option that should be a bit cheaper is Omega Pacific. Also, Climb Tech is now offering a complete draw with a quicklink, cable, and steel biner if you want to completely outfit the route for the forseable future. These are being used out in Rifle and the New, as well as some gyms. As Josh said, PM or email me at isaac@hoosierheights.com .

Those Climb Tech draws in Rifle are NICE.... plus their RB's kick ass too.

[cramacam]

those running backs really DO kick ass! Im with you dustonian! ... Is it fall yet?

Dave Scott has already equipped 4-6 draws on Omaha with Cyper steel biners (red, bent gate). Please don't remove those. A couple of guys from Knoxville were planning to sell Omegas for $5 each and I can check to see if that is still a go.

Damn, Meadows, you spoiled Nate's plan! He was going to remove the biners Dave Scott fixed and replace them with the exact same style to see if Dave would notice!
