Default Long adjustable ski poles



I am about ready to take my tele skis backcountry.

However I am having trouble finding poles that work.
I use 165cm poles for classic XC skiing, and the longest
adjustable poles I have found are just 145cm at their
longest. I do my tele turns at 115-120cm. But with 145cm
I have to bend over to go uphill, which does not work well.

Does anyone make poles that go from 115-165cm?
