What elevation do you ride at? This helix angle is good for high elevation.

2000 - 3500 ft ...

helix
I ride 0-3000 ft & have carls 62-42-.40 helix. You can definitely pull this helix down that low. You should call Carls & see what they recommend.

I just pulled into Laramie, will be riding tomorrow and that's exactly the helix I have in, along with stock black secondary spring and blue/pink 140/340 primary spring. I will let you know how it works.

What elevation are you riding at? What were you seeing for track speeds on a long uphill pull in deep snow?
Is this on an Axys?

i know in the past i was riding this helix in my pro rmk 2012 with 11-68 serie weight at 2000-3500 ft and when i appear with all stock pro rmk 2011-2015 this setup its better
Rode all day at an elevation of mostly 10,000-10,500' My exact setup is:
16 Axys 155 2.6
Bikeman pipe and can
Primary: blue/pink 140-340 spring, 10-64 Polaris weights with one gram ground off just the tip= 63g
Secondary: dual angle helix set at 60.38.36 stock black spring with no Delrin but have Carl's needle bearing under spring cup.
I've tried many different setups but this one is staying in! It was absolutely a blast to ride, instantaneous grins all day! Was seeing 8250-8300 rpm's and pulled harder than it ever has. I have not tried this setup w/o BMP pipe, but I'm guessing if you backed off 2-3 grams on weight it should work good to. Unfortunatey I was so focused on what RPMs I was getting that I forgot to check track speed on powder climbs, but tomorrow I will try to see what I'm getting for that too.

Not on an axys, on a dragon. Only reason I say that is because on another thread someone else was pulling this angle at 10,000 ft. on an Axys. If it could pull that angle that high, it should definitely pull it that low.

That's awesome. Im thinking the ideal helix angle that high is going to be a 60/38 or maybe even a 62/38. Whats the other angle on your helix?

My other angle is 64.40.36 I never tried that one, my guess is that it would prob do fine with it. Mabe see small drop in rpm

Second day we did more tree riding, where could only go WOT for 5 seconds or less. Never got a chance to give it a fair and accurate reading. Just never found a steep powder climb, but was awesome riding in the Snowy Range.

i try de 60-38 at my next ride ...
Do you also have the Bullydog tuner?
I don't have the bully dog tuner, I've ran the BMP pipe at 1500' and 10,000' feet in 91 non ethanol mode and it has never gave a DET warning. I might try a tuner at some point though, just haven't needed it.
