Constructed of high-performance carbon fiber, LEKI Neotrail FX One Superlite fixed-length trekking poles have comfortable foam grips, a compact packed size, and weigh just over 9 ounces per pair, making them ideal for trail runners, thru-hikers, and ounce-counting backpackers.
Thermo-foam grips serve as comfortable handholds and ultra-lightweight, easy-to-adjust straps reduce stress on your wrists and provide additional security and comfort. These grips have a short extension below the main section to make it easy to grasp lower on the shafts, providing better control when you encounter a steep slope or side hill traverse.
The "foldable" design of the poles consists of a concealed inner cord that runs through all four carbon shaft sections. After each shaft section is aligned, a push button lock tensions and locks the poles securely in place. Simply pull on the aligned sections until you hear the confirming "click" that the sections are locked securely in place. When you are ready to collapse the poles, push in the lock button to disengage the lock and fold up your poles. This innovative design saves weight and reduces packed size to just 13.8".
NOTE: While the poles do offer foldable collapsibility, they are not height-adjustable. To accommodate varying heights and preferences, the poles are available in fixed length options in 5 cm increments ranging from 110 cm (43.3") all the way up to 135 cm (53.1") in length.
The poles use low-profile trail running tips. The carbide tips provide strength and grip while minimal baskets reduce the risk of the poles getting caught between rocks or tree roots on the trail.
LEKI Neotrail FX One Superlite trekking poles are sold in pairs.
