chirp Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Does anyone know where or IF I can get the small trekking baskets for my "old" BD trekking poles. I bought them in like 1992 and they have a fixed tip with slide on baskets. See the pics Sure I could cut the old ones down or mebbe there is a similar design out there? All the newer ones have replaceable tips and larger basket sleeves. Thanks for any input in advance! Quote
whistlepunk Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Yeah, google BD for their 800 # and call. I busted one of the lower legs on one of their poles awhile back. I called BD and explained what happened (even mentioning that it was my fault, not a flaw in the pole) and they sent me not one, but two new lower legs, free... like overnight. Awesome customer service. Quote
chirp Posted March 31, 2005 Author Posted March 31, 2005 Did you check with BDEL customer service? Yep, they actually said their current parts come close to fitting and to give those a try. They looked mighty big but I will head down to the shop today! Quote
chirp Posted April 3, 2005 Author Posted April 3, 2005 Got baskets in mail, 2 days later...fit to a tee. looks like they are supporting older products just fine. Nice job BD Quote
