In my previous post, I demonstrated a way to add a little something to make that darned Vibram tab behave itself. Unfortunately for me, there was no joy in the compounds I’ve been using for glue. So I ended up reversing the mod and think of another way to deal with my issues.
I revisited the idea of cutting the cord, but still couldn’t push through with it. Testicular fortitude FAIL. I did recall, however, one comment in that thread that held a lot of promise.
In summary, it suggested a way to take away the tensioner… without having to cut the cord. Even better; it’s possible to do it in a way that you’d still be able to put the tensioner back! This means you’ll be able to experiment with the feeling of having the cord cut without having to drastically modify a “core design feature” of the Classic line.
So if you’re considering cutting the cord altogether, this would be a good way to “test” if you’ll regret your decision.
