I just came home from a 4 day sled trip on my 2010 Nytro MTX MCX 240. During the first day my secondary spring broke. I noticed it when the sled appeared to start in higher gear and the belt whined until i got up in speed. I could ride the rest of the day and stopped downhill to get it moving easier.
I was riding with the P.O and he had changed the spring a few short trips before, because it snapped, with a new similar pink spring.
The spring broke on the inner part about 2 inches from the tap along with the wire. In the evening we heated the broken edge and bend a new tap and i installed the spring. I rode it the next 3 days of the trip with hard pulls on lakes and hills with no further problems.
Why does the secondary spring break?
I have the MCX 240 kit with whatever clutching supplied with the kit.
The spring is black with pink paint.
Does the spring break because of binding?
Should i use a different spring?
