Trekking poles Leki MT Sherpa FX.One Carbon 140 – adjustable carbon walking poles

Leki MT Sherpa FX.One Carbon 140 are adjustable carbon trekking poles designed for hikers who need a balance of lightness, strength and compactness. The poles feature a carbon shaft that reduces weight and vibration while maintaining rigidity for stable support on trails. Adjustable length up to 140 cm makes them adaptable to different terrains and user heights, and the foldable or collapsible mechanism allows convenient packing for multi-day excursions and travel.

Advantages

The carbon construction provides a high strength-to-weight ratio, lowering user fatigue on long hikes. Adjustable length gives flexibility for uphill, downhill and varied terrain, improving posture and reducing joint stress. The poles are designed to fold or collapse compactly for transport and storage, and they include ergonomic grips and reliable locking mechanisms that contribute to user comfort and consistent performance during extended use.

Suitable for

• Day hikes and trail walking where lightweight support is preferred
• Hill and mountain ascents and descents requiring adjustable length
• Multi-day trekking and backpacking where compact storage is important
• Walks on mixed surfaces: dirt tracks, gravel and alpine paths

Key specifications

• Material: carbon shaft for reduced weight and vibration damping
• Maximum length: 140 cm adjustable to multiple settings
• Collapsible/foldable design for compact transport and storage
• Ergonomic grip for secure handling during extended use
• Adjustable locking mechanism to secure chosen length

How to use

Set the pole length to match your height and the terrain: slightly shorter for downhill sections and longer for uphill climbs. Extend the shaft and engage the locking mechanism fully before applying weight. Hold the ergonomic grip with a relaxed wrist and plant the pole ahead of your stride to assist balance and reduce impact on knees and ankles. When packing, collapse or fold the poles following the manufacturer’s folding sequence and secure them in the provided strap or carry system.

Usage recommendations

Inspect locks and joints before each outing, and avoid exposing the carbon shaft to sharp impacts. Use appropriate pole tips or baskets for snow, mud or rocky ground to preserve tip condition and maintain traction. Store the poles dry and loosen locks if storing long-term to protect the mechanism.
