Leki Ultratrail FX One Running Poles
Poles have become a staple in trail and mountain running, with more offerings on the market than ever before. That means manufacturers need to continue to improve, and Leki did not sit on its laurels with the updated Ultratrail FX.One Running Pole. A 12% decrease in weight from the original is not an insignificant amount; your arms will thank you after every grueling climb. The shortened grip helps save those precious grams, and the enhanced nose on the bottom of the grip adds security when choking down on steep climbs. The Shark Frame Strap system remains, so attaching to the poles is as easy as ever, for less pain in the middle of uphill grinds. The Leki Ultratrail FX.One might not be the only one, but they are the ones you need: a pair of fantastic running poles.
- The cork bottom's "nose" offers a secure lower grip on the handle.
- Shark Frame Strap system transfers power directly to the pole's center.
- 12% weight savings means you can go 12 times as fast and 12 times as far*.
- Foldable construction makes stowing poles quick and easy.
- Carbon fiber keeps weight at a minimum, but do you need Superlite?
