Deephaven Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 That setup worked great on my IQR. Was spin city before the extension and hooked up after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's supposed to ride like a 128 but gives riders that extra bit of rail and track for added traction and bump bridging. Maybe it works, or maybe it's a great marketing gimmick. They have been using that setup in the Iron Dog sleds for a while now. Tipped rails are a gimmick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hit that thing from the right side to the left at 90 mph and do a double backflip over it. Use a short track sled though to better bridge that bridge.

Not greg b Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 My super jag has tipped rails. It takes a country mile to turn it around. I don’t think they do much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A super jag is not a gimmick sled, they had articulating skids. Not tipped rails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnstang Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 That's badass. I'd like one. I think some got a hi-lo transmission. I'm looking for a rack for my puma 2 up I'll have to look into that fold down one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works great for hauling the cooler when we go ride around the island ditch banging and local short cuts. It’s also surpriseingly quick for how big it is. It will go 60-65. I put probably 200 miles on it this winter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
favoritos Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 (edited) It was super easy in the old days to convert a skid to tipped rails. A good tail landing and presto you have tipped rails. BTW, they wear the heck out of hyfax at the bend. Biggest difference I noticed with tipped rails was how a good hooking sled would lift the front without much effort.
