Spartan Ultra: the trailrunning grip with strap

08/09/2024

THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS: A HYBRID BETWEEN THE TRAIL SHARK AND THE RCM GRIP. THE IDEA FOR THE NEW SPARTAN ULTRA WAS BORN FROM A SELF-MADE AND MODIFIED RCM GRIP FROM TRAILRUNNER FRANÇOIS D'HAENE. AFTER MANY HOURS OF TESTING AND COUNTLESS PROTOTYPES, IT WAS READY: THE NEW SPARTAN ULTRA.

The SPARTAN ULTRA

100% weight optimized, perfect for technical terrain, hot conditions and maximum freedom. The Spartan grip is based on feedback from top athletes and combines minimalism with versatility.

It is equipped with an ultra-light and quick-drying D-Loop mesh strap, the new loop material guarantees maximum breathability and drying back. With the help of the eccentric cap, the loop can be adjusted in seconds, so that you do not lose time during the race.

The lightweight foam handle has flattened sidewalls for even better guidance at high speed. The super-light shaft with a slim 14 mm diameter is optimized to minimum weight thanks to high-end carbon.

DER SPARTAN ULTRA

100% gewichtsoptimiert. Perfekt für technisches Terrain, heiße Bedingungen und maximale Freiheit. Der Spartan Griff basiert auf Feedback von Spitzenathlet:innen und verbindet Minimalismus mit Vielseitigkeit.

Er ist mit einer ultraleichten und schnell trocknenden D-Loop Mesh Strap ausgestattet, das neue Schlaufenmaterial garantiert höchste Atmungsaktivität und Rücktrocknung. Mithilfe der Exzenterkappe lässt sich die Schlaufe in Sekundenschnelle einstellen, sodass man beim Rennen keine Zeit verliert. Der leichte Foamgriff hat abgeflachte Seitenwangen für noch bessere Führung bei hoher Geschwindigkeit. Der superleichte Schaft mit schlanken 14 mm Durchmesser ist dank High-end Carbon auf minimales Gewicht optimiert.

FRANÇOIS D‘HAENE ABOUT THE SPARTAN ULTRA

"Something different is perfect for everyone. I personally want to have access to my backpack at all times during trail running and be able to climb rock passages with my hands. I want to be able to easily fold and store my poles and rebuild them just as quickly. At the same time, I need a simple and comfortable grip that I can use day and night with my eyes closed. The same applies to the loop: it should be super light and absorbent and offer the best power transmission. We tried a lot to find the perfect grip and loop, with the new Spartan Ultra we succeeded." - François D'Haene
