LEKI Compact Lite Replacement Lower Section

LEKI Code: LESECL71 12 mm Lower Section 420 mm Length Black Anodized SLS (Super Lock System) 14/12 mm Section Production Era: Approximately 2003–2010

This 12 mm lower section is the correct factory replacement for the LEKI Compact Lite trekking pole, built on the reduced-diameter 14/12 mm Lite geometry. The Compact Lite used the SLS (Super Lock System) internal twist-lock mechanism for height adjustment — rotate anti-clockwise to release, set height, rotate clockwise to lock — with no external lever required. The 12 mm section diameter is narrower than the standard 14 mm used across LEKI’s mainstream trekking range, placing the Compact Lite in the slimmer Lite geometry built for lighter loads and lower-impact use. The black anodized finish (colour code 033) and 420 mm printed length are the defining specifications for this section. From easy valley walks through the Cotswolds to well-maintained paths across the South Downs, the Compact Lite was designed for lighter use where the reduced Lite geometry offered a practical advantage. When the lower section is bent, cracked, or the SLS mechanism no longer holds, this replacement restores the original geometry and locking function precisely. The 420 mm printed length is specific to the Compact Lite — verify the printed marking on your existing section before ordering. Sold as a single section.
