Hi winter Fatbikers

Anyone have recommendations for Ice cleats to go over winter hiking boots that work friendly with flat studded pedals like RF Chesters?

We have solid ice for weeks in Maine and on the off camber part of the trails I am losing grip even with studded tires. A little worried about losing my adductors when toe tapping.

So far, the Yacktrax with spiral springs are too slippery for the amount of ice I am dealing with.

The Icetrax cleats with Diamond chains seem to put me too far off the pedals and reduce the grip.

The LLean Stabilicers worked decent and are real sticky to ice, but I feel the heal studs could be a little wider

Anyone have or try the Korkers polar trax? Seem low profile and decent coverage.

Any others use boot cleats fatbiking?

Get some grip studs...we have been running their shoe length last couple years...only need about 7-8 studs per shoe. We just leave area where pedal is without. They are holding up awesome.
