Hi Ben, for the new TX Pro, your best bet is either a crampon with a semi-automatic (universal) toe bail, or one of the CAMP "Skimo" crampons with the red shelf at the front. None of the standard automatic toe bails seem to work well with the toe lugs on the new tele boots.

Hi William, I just checked the 80mm crampon on a Zero G 80 and it will absolutely fit!

Hi Andy, unfortunately, we don't carry any parts for alpine or frame bindings.

Hi Ben,
On the LTR 105, which has a different lever and spring than the old 2.0, the auto vs manual behavior of the toe lever is actually determined by the direction (spring arms pointing up vs down) in which the spring is installed. So to convert the toe from manual to auto (or vice versa), check the orientation of the spring under the lever, remove the pin, then reinstall it with the spring flipped.

Hi Jason, B&D does not have a replacement that will work with the Salomon MTN Summit boot, however, the Atomic "backland frictionless pivot" (which can be purchased on this page) is actually a perfect fit on the MTN Summit boots.
