U're a legend!Wore one of my N% to the plate so I swapped the blown rubber up front and hard rubber in back for Vibram megagrip for really fun snow and winter runs. Turned out great and my first run was good. I never lost grip. Even on the ice.
There are about 2-3 mm of foam between the plate and the carbon.

I used tape to trace the existing outsole to loosely cut out the original shape. I cut out the rubber soled with leather sheers. The vibram outsole was really tough v wanted to stick to everything.

I used a heat gun to warm up the outsole and peel them off. I also cut out recessed areas for the vibram logos.

Then a layer of Barge went on and they cured for half an hour.

I reheated the glue to activate it, assembled the shoes, and used clamps that helped get the outsoles locked down.

After 24 hours, they were ready to go.

They performed so good and I’m really happy with the results.
