Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"You'll be amazed at the strength and durability of the Sterling Fusion Nano 9.2mm Single Rope. At such a small diameter, reduced rope drag lets the Sterling Nano float over rocks and through biners like a buttered baby on a water slide. But skinny don't mean flimsy Sterling double-treats the Nano with their patented DryCore process, strengthening the core and the sheath. Use the Sterling Fusion Nano Rope for onsight climbs, redpoints, and alpine routes when weight and speed are of the essence."

From RockCreek:
"The NEW 9.2mm Nano Dynamic Rope by Sterling will amaze you at how durable it can be at such a small diameter. With incredible lightness and easy handling, you won't even be able to feel it once you tie in. This is to date Sterling's skinniest single rope yet...With all of the standard high quality craftsmanship that goes into each Sterling rope, you will find that the 9.2 Nano may look delicate but it is a hard working rope that will last through all of the redpoints, extreme onsights and alpine routes you can throw at it. The Nano Dry Rope also is made with their proprietary DryCore technology, that will help maintain the original strength and elongation of your rope in wet or icy conditions. All of Sterling's ropes are treated with DryCore but dry treated ropes then go through a process to treat the sheath and in turn also treats the core again. According to Kurt Smith, Sterling's rep, "This is a pain staking process - we double dip the rope and do the treatment twice to really get it to bond to the nylon..""As for performance, you really can t beat a thin rope... Its smooth sheath and low profile slide easily over rock and through biners reducing rope drag at every zig and zag. The sheath is tight, yet soft and supple... Clipping is perhaps where I notice it the most. The rope seems to want to be in the biner. ..After all, if you re going to tote that much cord up a route (alpine rock anybody?), it had better be light and thin." - j_ung on Rockclimbing.com (Read the full review on the Nano)IMPORTANT: Due to these ropes' small diameters, it is recommended they only be used for onsights, redpoints, and NOT for top-roping or working of routes. It is critical that proper belay devices be used and extreme caution should be taken."
