Deep snow traction of AXYS compared to Summit 850

[Cummins88]

How much of your time is spent in the deep snow? (what is your riding terrain and snow type?)

Do you do mixed riding a lot? (trail/flat, and big mountain)


,

We ride the power lines mostly, we don't have bottomless powder in the east. When i'm home i will ride fields with MAX 2 feet of snow so i'm not worried about a track thats too hard and might trench.

A challenger extreme 2.5" is a good track. Typically speaking, stiffer lugs = better in harder snow, but can actually hurt in really dry fluffy snow. But ignoring that....I would say the Camo 2.5" extreme is a better track in all conditions than the 2.4"

The 2.4" track didn't bug me much until spring - I found it a decent deep snow track. It spins a lot, but it doesn't trench, is easy to sidehill and gets you around fine. It just don't have much hookup....and even less as the snow gets harder. And it definitely doesn't like to wheelie.

I'm way too cheap to spend the money to go from 2.4 to 2.5"....but that's me and I would buy a new sled before I ever upgraded a track. Your mileage may vary lol

We almost never get dry fluffy stuff - we did last week in Mont Valin Quebec but that was rare, we got pounded with a couple feet of fresh fluff.. the 2.4" had 0 hookup.

Find the stock doo 850 to just wheelie, not much track getting to snow in the deep.. They Have a few other concerns with poor skid, undesirable tippy t motion and steep attack angle to first figure out.. But when concerns are figured out they will be a player forsure..

LOL yeah he told me you were getting that.

I ordered the 2.5*challenger extreme today. That conquer looks interesting but I was worried with the reviews saying it’s very weak! Can’t wait to hear your reviews!
