Leki Ultratrail FX.One Poles

When the grade kicks up and hiking turns into race pace, this is the pole you want. The Ultratrail FX.One is LEKI’s lightest fixed-length folding pole, built specifically for trail runners who move fast in steep terrain and care about swing weight as much as split times.

At just 167 g (120 cm), the PRC 1000 carbon shaft feels sharp and efficient in hand. The stiffness keeps power transfer direct on climbs, while the low weight helps maintain rhythm late in the race when everything else starts to fade. These aren’t “just in case” poles — they’re performance tools for big vert and long mountain days.

Who it’s for
Trail runners racing ultras, tackling mountainous courses, or logging serious vertical in training. If you’re lining up for technical 50–100 km races or stacking alpine missions where poles save legs, this is your lane. Not designed for hiking, not adjustable for sharing — fixed length, race reliable.

Grip & connection
The Trail Trigger Shark system is built specifically for running. The breathable Shark Frame Strap Mesh wraps like a glove and connects directly to the pole’s centreline for efficient power transfer. Click in, click out, move on. The safety release adds protection without complicating transitions. Minimal, secure, dialed.

Deploy fast. Stash faster.
The push-button folding system collapses the four sections down to roughly 36–37 cm (depending on length), small enough to disappear into a race vest. Quick to deploy when the trail pitches up, compact when it flattens out.

Trail-tuned build
High-modulus PRC 1000 carbon for stiffness and weight savings. Minimalist trail running basket to keep swing clean. Carbide tip for confident bite on rock, dirt, and mixed terrain. Four-section construction with a slim 16 | 14 | 14 | 14 mm diameter profile.
