Ikos TR3 Poles

The DAC MX poles feel noticeably stiffer than the stock ones, and they clicked into place on the first try when I pitched the tent after replacing the old set. Setup took maybe ten minutes less than I'm used to, which says a lot for a rainy afternoon.

The DAC MX poles feel noticeably sturdier than the stock ones I had, and the tent went up in half the time once I swapped them in. The fit was perfect on the first try, no wrestling or bending needed.

The old poles bent on a windy night, so swapping in these DAC ones was a relief—they feel noticeably sturdier during setup. Only nitpick is the price stings a bit for what’s essentially a repair part, but the fit is spot-on and the tent went up without any wiggling.
