For serious backpackers and fastpackers who don’t have an extra minute or ounce to waste as they pound out huge trail days there’s the Leki Micro Vario Carbon Black Series Trekking Pole. The lightest and highest performing of Leki’s Micro Vario Carbon line, these poles boast a combined weight of less than one pound, and can be folded down in an instant for maximum packability on the trail. The new Core Locking Device offers super low-profile performance when you’re breaking down or setting up your poles. Its internal locking mechanism is not only protected by the elements for maximum durability, but is also quick and easy to use thanks to its intuitive design. A Speed Lock 2 adjustment system lets you adjust the poles within an 8 inch range as you take on varied terrain, and when you really need to adjust your grip on steep summit bids there’s an extended non-slip grip that lets you choke up and keep pushing towards the top.
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. Thermo foam grip material for extra comfort, light weight and insulation in colder weather. 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. Extended foam grip for traversing and climbing. SPEEDLOCK 2 lever locking mechanism is simply THE strongest external locking system in the world as rated by TUV, and the only locking systems to meet the minimum holding force recommended by TUV.
100% High Modulus Carbon shaft sections for reliable, lightweight performance in all conditions. PE coated, Kevlar reinforced tension cord for long term reliability. CLD (Core Locking Device) is a fully internal mechanism that is not subject to the elements and is completely intuitive and user friendly. It is simply the most advanced assembly/lockout feature of its kind.
Maximum tension between shaft sections made possible by internal (serviceable) spring in lower shaft. Carbon section ends are protected by machined Aluminum sleeves for extra long wear. Machined Aluminum connectors help to center shaft sections for quick, snag free assembly.
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.
