The Leki Makalu Lite Cor-Tec Trekking Poles are an easy and lightweight solution to aching joints and tired muscles when you’re off exploring your favorite trails. No matter the length of your stay in the woods or the difficulty of the terrain, you’ll be able to attack the trail thanks to the easy adjustment of the Speed Lock+ system. Light and low-profile, the Speed Lock+ provides a secure hold and up to 14 inches of adjustment, letting you switch your height up quickly when it’s time to take on steep summit slopes. A comfortable cork-grip offers a soft feel, moisture wicking performance, and multiple ways to hold as you wander up and down the trail. Rounding it out is a carbide metal tip that delivers a steady and reliable hold on the ever-changing surfaces you’ll encounter in the backcountry.
Exclusive AERGON grip features a hollow core construction to save weight and create an edgeless, rounded grip for comfortable gripping at all angles especially for “palming” on steeper terrain. COR-TEC grip material is 80% natural ground cork for a more durable, biomechanical design.
Built in 8deg Positive Angle in LEKI grips keeps wrist in neutral position and provides more efficient pole plants.
Air-textured “no bulk” security strap maintains design dimensions of grip; efficient wicking and fast drying; adjusts and secures strap adjustment without buckles.
Next generation SpeedLock Plus lever locking mechanism offers quick, reliable length adjustments even with gloved hands and is more user friendly thanks to the raised “speed dial” to crank up the holding power when needed. No tools required! Proprietary heat-treated ultralight 16mm HTS 6.5 Series Aluminum upper shaft; 14mm lower shafts. LEKI’s original Carbide Flextips provide secure hold on all terrain and surfaces for years of adventure; easily replaced in the field.
Interchangeable basket system allows a variety of different sized LEKI baskets to be easily screwed on/off for different seasons/uses thanks to offset threads that keep the baskets securely in place.
