Anyone used these biners yet? I'm thinking of upgrading my trad rack to all these to cut down on the weight.
Thaughts?

They are awesome, but my partner calls them paper clips... but he's a total douchebag.

I use them and they're excellent. The advantage is that they're very affordable and they're amazingly light. I also have some Wild Country Heliums. Personally, I think the Helium is a better biner (especially that clean-wire nose), but it's 50% more expensive than the Superfly.
I would like to upgrade my whole rack to strictly use these ultra-lightweight carabiners. I'd get the Superfly for most pieces, and the Helium anywhere that the extra size or the snagless nose would be helpful.
