Well I now have over 500 hundred miles on my sled, and would like to thank Joey at iBackshift for an awesome product!
I only had to adjust my belt deflection once after initial break-in, and its been good since. This would explain the lack of belt dust when blowing out the clutches during maintenance. I know it hasn’t been a stellar year for snow, but still it is odd not to have to adjust the deflection more.
Like always the back shifting has been great coming down a steep incline. Giving one blurp on the throttle the clutches engage making the descent controlled instead of a bobsled run. I have let several people ride my sled and upon returning they comment on the first time letting off the throttle not expecting the strong back shift and catching themselves almost going over the bars.
One of my favorite features of the iBackshift clutch kits is the ease of changing weights for the altitude you plan on riding. Being I got the Expert Turbo this year I haven’t had the need to change my weights at all. I put in Joe’s recommended weights on install and it has worked awesome.
Last week after a climb one of the other riders said they were catching up to me fast on the way up the hill. I said I didn’t know it was a race, because I wasn’t going full throttle. Between the turbo, and iBackshift clutching I go just fast enough to make most climbs. I have the conference knowing how much performance I’m holding in reserve.
Thanks again iBackshift for an awesome product!
