@AllHatNoCattle How was the performance change in going to the 129" CMX Track?
It was a significant improvement. I only ride deep snow and the year after I bought the 2019 120SX, the first 3" Aro came out. Everyone I rode with bought one and I really struggled to keep up with them on the 120". I had to follow their trails up climbs of any significance or I would get stuck and be left behind.
Going to the CMX made a very noticeable difference and I really loved the stiffer paddles and paddle design. I still couldn't quite keep up in the deep on very steep climbs and would occasionally have to move into someone elses trail if the climb looked tough. It was a lot better though. My kit was super nimble in the trees and I loved the way it flowed.
I sold that kit this season and went to a Aro3"s" lowered kit. I have written about it in other threads, but I have been impressed with just how much more traction this 3" gets in the deep snow compared to my 2.5" CMX. That said, it is like riding a different bike. Much more tractor like.
If I had it to do again I wouldn't have dumped the $2000+ to convert my old kit to a CMX track. I dont think I got any extra money out of it when I sold it (maybe $500). If I had it to do again I would just sell my kit and get a 3", rather than going through the hassle and expense of converting.
