Momentum Adjustable Harness (Manufacturer link) popular Average Rating : 4.05/5
In: Gear: Essential Equipment: Harnesses: AdjustablePretty good
Review by: krosbakken, 2008-08-26
A very comfortable harness for trad but don't totally trust the gear loops. They are made out of rubber and not super strong.
My brother ( he was the second ) was decending a gullie after a climb and had cams and nuts on his harness gear loops and one cam got stuck on something and almost broke the whole gear loop.
So now it is stretched and really not that useable. Still a great harness but just be aware of that.

I would have to disagree with yburtikl. The rubber is just a step down form 5.01's rubber. Yes you can smear with them. The edging isn't the greatest. I like them for crack the best, and thats what they excel in. I wear a 10 to 10 1/2 in street shoes and I bought a 9 in these and they have stretched to a great proforming fit.
So over all, not the greatest face shoe but I give these 4 stars because the rubber is awesome and Im a huge crack climber and they are great for crack.

Small, lightweight, doesn't snag on gear because of keylock and i have two of them and i use them for belaying, and anyother use.

I have three of them and love them. Great for top roping, belaying, etc. The only thig is that the screw lock after a while gets a little unsmooth but still not bad. And for two ropes its not the best. For like rappelling. But an awesome carabiner and for the price you can't beat it. Light, strong, and durability is great.
