Backcountry track, opinions wanted

[yamiemax]

I have a Nytro XTX and ride mainly in Manitoba/Sask. Just wondering how the 144 x 15 x 1.75 Backcountry track would perform in the mountains or is it better to switch out my track to a 2" challenger.

I have an 09 xtx and I ride mostly in sask. Last year I went to 8 tooth extrovert drivers and an 1.75" back country. I am happy with it, I ride variety of cond.itions and the track performs well every where.

I've also got an 09' xtx and last year went to the backcountry. I've been really impressed with it's crossover versatility and it seemed to perform well in the mountains last year but I wasn't able to compare it to a 2". Lugs are stiff and it had really good hook up.

Thanks for the input guys. The way I understand it, is if I go to the 1.75 backcountry I don't have to remove the tunnel protectors, right?

i would use the 2 if your going to mountain ride. if you trail ride it here buy a set of scratchers.

I did not remove anything and have no problems.

Rode with an XTX with Back country track some last winter and it went quite well in the deeper snow. I thought it was a pretty good cross over track.

did you have to change drivers,and does it over heat on hard pack trails

I changed drivers. I ride trails and hve no problem overheating. The track works great.
