Our Verdict

At a mere 131 grams per 120cm pole, the Neotrail FX. One Superlite lives up to its name. When you pick them up, you’ll be amazed at how something so light can feel so sturdy. The HRC (Highest Racing Carbon) construction strikes an impressive balance between weight savings and rigidity, providing confident support on the trail.

With a simple click, these poles collapse to a compact 35cm, making them easy to stow when not in use. This quick-deploy mechanism is a godsend during races where efficiency is key.

The ergonomics haven’t been overlooked, either. The RTC Lite handle, with its rounded head and foam extension, offers multiple grip options to adapt to changing terrain. Coupled with the adjustable and breathable Lock Security Strap, these poles provide comfort and security over long distances.

LEKI is upfront about their intended use: they’re racing poles. Their ultralight construction, which makes them perfect for race day, also means they require careful handling. They’re not designed for technical alpine terrain or as a crutch for body weight.

For serious trail runners looking to optimise their race-day kit, the Neotrail FX. One Superlite Poles are a top-tier choice. They embody the philosophy of “less is more,” providing essential support without weighing you down.
