The third generation of Singing Rock Fakir crampons offers crampons that are lighter, stronger and with a fresh look. The Fakir III are available in Classic (straps), Semi-Classic (semi-automatic) and Tech (automatic) versions.
Singing Rock Fakir III Classic Crampon

In addition, the symmetrical shape of the crampon adapts perfectly to the boot and the front toes, providing maximum efficiency on steep terrain. Size adjustment has been simplified and can be done without the use of tools.
During the development of the third generation of Fakir crampons, Singing Rock has focused on the weakest aspects of the previous generation (Fakir II). The design has been renewed to achieve greater strength and a longer useful life, at the same time as a lighter crampon has been achieved (810g for the Fakir III Classic vs 855g for the Fakir II Classic). In addition to the design, the center bar of the Fakir III Classic has been replaced by a flexible stainless steel bar that better conforms to the flexible soles of trekking boots and better absorbs part of the load. Finally, the crampon anti-cramp plates have been modified, now being manufactured with a more flexible material that better retains its properties in extreme sub-zero temperatures. Thanks to this modification, the anti-cracking plates of the Singing Rock Fakir III work better and last longer.

Singing Rock Fakir III crampons are also available in Classic (straps) and Semi-Classic (semi-automatic) versions. They weigh 880 grams per pair. Approved under the EN 893 standard.
One of the most striking novelties of this third generation is that the Fakir III Tech automatic crampons allow the front part to be replaced by one of the two new Singing Rock crampon toe caps: a toe cap compatible with ski mountaineering boots or skimo - SKI toe cap. - and another that makes the Fakir III Tech crampon compatible with trekking boots with a groove only in the heel - the SEMI-CLASSIC toe cap.
