The little sister of the classic Makalu is a slightly lighter yet reliable companion for your next mountain adventure! The Makalu Lite is equipped with the new Aergon Air, which has been redesigned for comfort and control and improved in countless details. The special hollow core technology combines lightweight construction with large, supportive surfaces that meet all the ergonomic requirements of your hand. Maximum grip and control when going downhill is provided by the Aergon Air´s rubberized grip back. The inclined angle supports your wrist for optimal guidance and placement of the pole and contributes to the safety on the mountain.
