Gripwalk soles for Dalbello KR2 Fusion?

[motopsycha]

Are the new gripwalk soles available from Dalbello compatible with Fusions from 17?

No

I have some Vibram DIN compatible soles retro fitted onto my KR2s.
I think they originally come from a Lange XT?

Bought the already altered boots here, from a shop dude.

Thatkid? (I think)

So are they actual Grip Walk soles? Grip Walk would have to undergo some fairly major surgery to work on KR's.

^^^ negative, not Grip-Walk.

Just Vibram with a DIN toe to mate with an AFD, more traction than stock.

Okay - that makes sense. The GW plate itself is fairly different from the replaceable Dalbello soles, so I was scratching my head for a hot minute... I have the Lupo factory with the regular GripWalk, but I might grab a set of the Vibram replacements as well - they look like the bee's knees!

It would not be difficult to retrofit that boot with a set of Grip Walk soles from a Lupo.

My guess is you just take the stock soles off and screw the Grip Walk ones on. At the most you’d have to route out the toe and heel.

The sole block pattern of the KR 120 and the GW from the Lupo are NOT the same. I’ll take some pics when I get home so you see what I’m talking about. You can’t just do a simple swap. I was going to do that with mine...but no dice.
