120" maxtrax 2.5" will it fit on 2015 st timbersled

proxj · Nov 29, 2016

If I use the drop down brackets and do a bit of trimming can I make this track fit on my 2015 timbersled st? I have found these tracks a fair amount cheaper then the timbersled 2.5 convex tracks, has anyone done this swap? how does it perform?

I have done the conversion, all you need is the drop brackets for the 2015 Timbersled and it will bolt right up

how did the track perform? was it worth the swap?

I did the 129 2.5 maxtrax on my 2015 st. and I found it worked way better in the deep powder than my 120 2 in track did. But in the harder pack snow I found the stock track did better as it has stiffer lugs. But I only ever ride in deep pow so the conversion made sense for me. But I heard the maxtrax 2 has stiffer lugs so it might be better all around.

Spring for a 2.5 Convex from TS. There is a reason all those Maxtracks are out there so cheap.. The original Maxtrack is too soft and has pretty terrible traction on harder/heavier snow compared to the 2.5 TS track (I rode them back to back). Yeti changed the track for this season...

Anyone use a maxtrack 1 on a 250/300 2 stroke? Wondering if the soft flex favors a lighter less powerful bike with a lighter rider.

The one I rode was on a 300. It spun a ton, and it was a 137. It was heavy April snow, but the Timbersleds had almost 100% traction in that snow and the Yeti was spinning all over the place.

is the 2.5 a lot better in soft snow? I only head to the mountains 1 or times a year, we ride from the end of December for a week or two, then maybe again in February. my main concern is finding a better track then my 2" for deeper snow as I am a bigger guy.

Yes they have significantly better traction all around than a 2" track. It is worth the upgrade
