I only have the micros on the upper end of the range, as I'm not really an aid climber looking for bodyweight only pieces. I have placed these a couple of times and although they are small, they are solid. Anothergreat piece of gear from BD.
I can probably climb on a rack made entirely of BD micro stoppers. Well, maybe not. But they are versatile the shape is key and strong. This is a necessary piece of any rack.
Micro Stoppers were essential in my first aid adventures up Moonlight Buttress and Touchstone in Zion. They are narrow enough to fit in were the tiny BD regular nuts wont, and the big ones are burley enough that I wouldnt hesitate to run it out over one.
