Yesterday I pulled my Nytro out of the trailer after a awesome day of riding on Saturday.
Sadly I discovered that the ride home Saturday afternoon on about a mile of Mud/Dirt spelled the end of my Hyfax. It was 100% gone in places with the track touching bare metal on the rails.
So..
I need a new Hyfax at the minimum, and I am wondering if now might be a good time to consider installing a wheel kit to reduce the wear next time around??
I saw this one which seems to releave the stress right where mine burned through.
