Product Information

Full details

The LEKI® EAGLE walking poles are designed for outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy hiking, trekking, and long mountain excursions. Their key benefit lies in their continuously adjustable Vario construction, allowing for personalized length adjustment to suit body height and terrain, ensuring comfort and stability. A potential caveat is that like all adjustable poles, improper adjustment could lead to less secure performance. These poles feature sturdy aluminum construction, a reliable Super Lock System (SLS) for secure grip, and ergonomic grips for extended comfort.

FAQs

What is the adjustable length range for the Leki Eagle poles?

The Leki Eagle poles are continuously adjustable from 110 cm to 145 cm.

How much does each pole weigh?

Each Leki Eagle pole weighs approximately 270 grams.

What type of grip system do these poles use?

They feature the ergonomic PAS V1 grip system with a Lock System Strap made of Nylon.

What is the Super Lock System (SLS)?

The SLS is an external adjustment mechanism that provides a secure and reliable locking of the pole length, ensuring stability and safety.

Can I use these poles for winter activities?

While designed for hiking and trekking, LEKI offers compatible trekking baskets (sold separately) that can be attached for use on snow or softer terrain.

What material are the poles made from?

The poles are constructed from sturdy Aluminum HTS 6.0 tubing.

Are replacement parts available?

Yes, replacement tips and baskets are typically available through LEKI authorized dealers or their service centers.

Troubleshooting

Poles won't stay at adjusted length

Ensure the Super Lock System (SLS) levers are fully closed and tightened. If slippage persists, the internal locking mechanism may require servicing or adjustment. Check for debris within the locking mechanism.

Grip feels uncomfortable

Adjust the Lock System Strap for a more secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure the strap is not too tight or too loose. The ergonomic design of the PAS V1 grip is intended for comfort; ensure you are holding the grip naturally.

Difficulty adjusting pole length

Make sure the SLS levers are fully open. If the poles are stuck, gently tap them on the ground or use a soft cloth to try and dislodge any dirt that might be impeding the mechanism. Do not force the adjustment.

Tip feels unstable on certain surfaces

The Flex Tip is designed for versatility. For very soft or muddy ground, consider attaching LEKI trekking baskets (sold separately) to provide greater surface area and prevent the pole from sinking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Extend the poles by loosening the Super Lock System (SLS) levers.
  2. Adjust each pole to your desired length, ensuring it is comfortable for your height and the terrain (typically, when the pole is held upside down with the tip on the ground, your elbow should be at a 90-degree angle).
  3. Firmly close and lock the SLS levers. You should feel a secure click and the levers should be tight.
  4. Adjust the Lock System Strap to fit snugly around your wrist. The strap can be threaded through the grip for a secure fit.

Compatibility:

The LEKI® EAGLE poles are designed for general hiking, trekking, and mountain excursions. The Flex Tip is compatible with various terrains, providing good traction. Replacement tips or baskets (if needed) are typically available from LEKI dealers.

Care:

  • After each use, especially in wet conditions, wipe the poles down with a damp cloth.
  • Ensure the poles are completely dry before storing them to prevent corrosion.
  • Periodically check the SLS levers for proper function and tightness. Clean any dirt or debris from the locking mechanism.
  • Store the poles in a dry place, ideally in a protective bag, to prevent scratches and damage.
