I'm in the market for a new track on my 2020 850 163/2.6 and am wondering if anyone has tried any of the Composit tracks and what your opinion on them was and how it compared to the factory polaris 2.6 in different conditions. also i cand find any info on there website regarding weight.
Composit track reviews.

They are quite heavy compared to what’s out there as they are not single ply like most tracks these days. They do work well though.
Roughly about 8lbs more than the stock track, but with that weight comes durability. Had one on my Doo 850 and it worked better than the Doo track. One time I had gotten a rock the size of a cantaloupe jammed on top of the track in the tunnel and ended up leaving the sled in the bush for the night. Bunch of lugs were folded right over and thought for sure they would break off(-30c temps). Had to drop the suspension to get the rock out and all the lugs were ok. Tough track!!
Crazy why OEM tracks are so expensive and camo extreme and composit are half the cost.

It’s so the oem can charge insurance more money.
Same reason the “original” bumper in black cost more than the “accessory” bumper in blue for example. (Even though both bumpers are identical except for color)

Poke around the doo threads. A number of guys shedding lugs on the 850s have switched to Composit and posted reviews online.
Not a lot of people using composit tracks because they are in limited supply. (At least the 2.6 and 3” lug tracks.
I’ve heard nothing but good about reliability though.
There have been good and bad reviews of the composit track. For the price it’s a pretty good track, there are much better tracks out there though.
Caleb Caterske is with them and they seem to hold to his abuses. weight and availability is a bitch tho
Kurts Polaris put them on their "snowcheck" Khaos 163 sleds the first year of the Khaos... don't think they would risk their reputation on a poor track. That being said, I personally would prefer a camo extreme of some equivalent size, they are also heavier than stock even though they are 1 ply, but generally very durable...
