Anyone ever tried a variable height and variable stiffness design? Eg: stiffer and taller on some lugs than others?
I'm thinking about dual compound dirt bike tires and how awesome they can work in a variety of conditions.
Yes, the m66. I have it on my 146 and really like it. That track is very soft on the center lugs and inner portion of the outer lugs. The outer part of the side lugs are very stiff and have fingers. It’s a soft powder track in the middle with stiff edges to bite the layer down low.
I’ve tried 4 tracks on my 146”. The m67, m66, series 6 2.6, and 2.6 powerclaw. I’d probably take the m66 for an all season do it all track on that sled. But the powerclaw cat track hooks up the best on any layer it can find. It hooks so hard! Such a fun track for ski lift and will climb great! You just have to be moving! Both the m66 and powerclaw are about 10lbs heavier than the m67 and series 6.
The m67 and series 6 just spin and won’t lift the skis. Those tracks make my 146 feel like a pro. I wasn’t a fan for how I like to ride.
Aggressive tracks and taller lug tracks have to be ridden accordingly. I think that’s partially why there is such a difference in opinion on them. If you dilly dattle on a tall lug or aggressive track you probably won’t like it.
