Gabel Stride X-5 vaellussauva musta/keltainen 115 cm

At just 230 g per pole, the Gabel Stride X-5 delivers featherlight performance without compromising on strength, thanks to its F56 aluminum alloy shaft. This fixed-length trekking pole is cut for 115 cm and finished in a bold black and yellow colourway, making it a reliable companion for fast-paced hikes and long-distance treks.

Overview

The Stride X-5 is a single-section trekking pole built for hikers who value simplicity, durability, and minimal weight. Its 16 mm shaft diameter strikes an ideal balance between rigidity and vibration damping, while the carbide tip bites confidently into rock, dirt, and ice. A 03/36F Power Race basket prevents the pole from sinking into soft ground, and the included rubber tip pad protects the tip when walking on hard surfaces. The soft foam handle with an adjustable nylon strap ensures a secure, comfortable grip over long miles.
