Got the Pursuit FLZ poles last summer.

The "Flicklock" system broke on me after a few days of use. Luckily after the big ascent of that trip.

Got my money back in the store ('Shouldn't have happend, flimsy manufacturing'). Bought a pair of Leki poles in the same store.

My BD poles broke around the rubbery plastic parts the cord runs through. These have the same system. No idea if they have improved it.
