LEKI Sherpa XL, Khumbu & Makalu Replacement Lower Section

LEKI Code: LESECL86 14 mm Lower Section 490 mm Length Black Anodized Speed Lock 2 (SL2) 16/14 mm Section Production Era: Approximately 2006–2012

This 14 mm lower section is the correct factory replacement for the LEKI Sherpa XL, Khumbu, and Makalu trekking poles in the SL2 black anodized configuration, all built on the standard 18/16/14 mm three-section telescopic geometry. The Speed Lock 2 (SL2) external lever provides fast one-motion height adjustment, clamping directly against the outer wall of the 14 mm section. The black anodized finish (colour code 033) and 490 mm printed length are shared across this family and are the defining specifications for this section. From the broad ridges of Exmoor to long approach routes in the Cairngorms, the Sherpa XL, Khumbu, and Makalu were established names in LEKI’s trekking range across this era. When the lower section is bent, cracked, or the SL2 lever collar no longer holds under load, this replacement restores the original geometry and locking function. The 490 mm printed length is specific to this SL2 family — verify the printed marking on your existing lower section before ordering. Sold as a single section.
