And where would you clip the eye of your rope too?

Its interesting to say the least, it works but i dont use it

Infront of the pinto there is space

I climbed using a similar setup for a while before the pinto came out. I was using a petzl fixe pulley. tecnically not supposed to use the becket on the fixe but I found it to be a nice compact system.

Like broadsword has said it's an old solution used to do the same with a fixe to myself until the hitchclimber came out.

 

Now my cinch is worn out i am going back to a knot on my lanyard and may try it out again although leaving the becket clear has it advantages to.

Whats the advantage besides bot crowding the biner as much?

On a lanyard for example you could clip the biner to the becket creating a short double line second anchor point. Or even clip another system to it for more support, another pulley to give more advantage etc.

Maybe im wrong here but it looks to me when you load that set up the rear leg on the becket won't be doing much as the pinto reverts putting most the load onto the front leg, does the rear leg feel floppy when loaded arran?
