Is my second pair. First one in 2020, I have fixed them several times, after many races, but was time for new ones. They have been updated. I use them in all my trail running races and ultras. Sturdy, confy and seem lighter then previous version.

I couldn't be happier with these poles. These poles are exceptionally lightweight and sturdy. They're comfortable to hold. They collapse and extend easily. I use them hiking uphill, then fold and stash them in my backpack or under my fanny pack belt when not using them. I chose a non-adjustable model to minimize the number of working parts. Their length isn't perfect for my height, but I'm comfortable with their extra couple of inches. They're pricey but worth it. They're my all-time favorite hiking poles.

After about 20 miles so far, I’m loving these poles. They’re sturdier and easier to use than the Leki Makalu carbon poles I had before. They’re way lighter than the aluminum poles I had before that. The handles feel great, and their shape helps me adjust without looking down at the handles while also being ergonomic. Really great poles all around.

More expensive than other trekking sticks but a value at the price point. Yo are MORE likely to use these on trails as they are compact and will fit easily in small packs which makes very easy to carry with you

These are great for my hikes. They fold very nicely for packing. They are lightweight for travel and for hiking.

Light weight. Easy to expand and collapse. Last one gave me 12 years of service.

Broke on second hike with new poles. It didn't get lodged or stuck, and it wasn't hit hard or dropped. Normal use. REI said the poles were defective.

Great price and really easy to set up/pack down. Super light so I can carry them easily when running. Sized up as I was between sizes.

Nuova versione dei BD Carbon, più leggeri e meglio rifiniti. Risolto il problema del pulsante di chiusura, ora è questione di un semplice click. Unica nota dolente il prezzo, un rene in meno, ma valgono il costo.

They arrived with the metal stud tips, with the option to change to the rubberised ones for road use. This proved to be incredibly difficult and even with the use of two sets of pliers, I had to revert to putting the ends in iced water so they would contract. I now have plier marks on the area above the tips, which is annoying!
