Carbides


Recommended Posts

I love these Stud Boy Deuce 9” - these used ones have 12,000+ miles on them but still have a ton of carbide left.  Do any of you sharpen used carbides?  Obviously there’s a ton left on these that I’m sure I could get a few thousand miles out of them if I could put the edge back on them to make them grab better.  New ones went on the 18 today, going to see what difference they make over the next 3 days.

Been using SnowStud Sniper runners this year and so far am happy with them.  I sharpen mine on a grinder using a diamond wheel.  I've had the same diamond wheel now 5+ years

According the internet only bergstroms go that long. You must be doing something wrong lol. If you are riding in good snow I doubt you will notice much of a difference. When things get icy or driving up to the gas pump you will notice a difference.

You beat me to it. Old Jack on mn snowmobile riders told us all the other day bergstroms were the only way.

Impressive, only other brand I've ever seen with a crap ton of miles on them like that is Bergstroms!
