With its slim tube diameter, the Makalu Cork Lite has a weight of only 254 g (9 oz) per pole and is infinitely adjustable from 110 to 130 cm using the durable and time-tested Speed Lock Plus lever system. This collapsible and durable 3-section pole is crafted from HTS 6.5 aluminum, providing exceptional durability and dependability no matter where your next adventure takes you.
