Product description Maintain peak pace across challenging alpine terrain with the Leki Makalu FX Carbon trekking poles. Engineered for dedicated mountaineers and fast-packed backpackers who demand absolute minimum weight without sacrificing structural rigidity, this premium five-section folding model utilises elite carbon engineering. The upper shaft sections are crafted from pure carbon fibre for an incredibly responsive, lightweight swing weight, while the lowest section features high-strength aluminium to guard against sharp rock impacts. This advanced hybrid material design delivers elite vibration dampening and reliable stability on technical, high-altitude trails. Carbon & Aluminium Hybrid Chassis: Pure carbon fibre upper sections minimise total carry weight, paired with a heavy-duty HTS 6.5 aluminium lower segment to protect against abrasive rock strikes. Five-Section FX Folding Design: An ultra-compact folding mechanism allows the poles to collapse down to a pack size of just 40 cm, fitting effortlessly inside smaller daypacks or travel luggage. Aergon Air Grip Technology: An advanced hollow-core handle that reduces weight while providing expansive, supportive surfaces and a fully rubberised grip head for absolute control during steep downhill descents. Extended Grip Perimeter: Incorporates a long foam handle extension below the main head, allowing you to choke down on the shaft for immediate stability on steep uphill gradients without adjusting the pole length. Speed Lock 2 Plus System: A secure, TÜV Süd-certified external lever clamp enabling rapid, intuitive length adjustments between 110 cm and 130 cm, even when operating with cold hands or thick gloves. ELD External Locking Device: A user-friendly, high-performance locking button that releases the folding pole tension instantly with a single press, collapsing the system smoothly for rapid storage.
