TRX700XX in snow

I hear paddles don't clear out the snow well.

I don't have experience though because it never snows where I live to be a problem.

I was fine until we got a real wet and heavy snowfall, even though it wasn't deep enough to touch the bottom frame it would push up in front of the rear a-arms and stop me cold.

Check these out for the snow!

I've done about 1k in the snow so far and it's awesome. I put 23-7-10 Maxxis Razr's on the front and 24-9-11 Bearclaws on the back. Runs through it like a tank.

trx700xx in snow

Hello first post or reply ever.Have put 23x7x10 razor2s front 24x9x11 mudlites rear. Even in -26 razors grab and steer on anything hard snow pack 10 to 14 inches no problem. Rears however in the cold are like rocks. Went down to 4 pounds much better stubble field 10 inches of snow 3rd gear lean way back, watch out for approaching fench lines. 2 foot drifts not so good . Weather in central Alberta has been in the high -teens and low to mid -20s been out most of Christmas break global warming my frozen ass.

lol, that looks like front row parking at a bar, like motorcycles usually do it!

Wish i could ride my quad to the bar! haha

I like those tires! Seems the fronts might need to be a little bigger though?

Nice pics, I really like the Can-Am. That would be my next choice if I didn't get the XX

Looks like a decent sand tire also

Yes you can use them in the sand put it's not better then a sand paddle.

But in the snow the sand paddle are to agressive , with the Zipper you floating on the snow because the tread of tire are less agressive.

That's the better for the snow !

Actually it's not much different than stock tires. I have a buddy who has those tires on his z400 and he didn't do any better than when he had his stockers on.

Sweet. I could use some of those. Does either seem to get around better than the other?

I've been debating this setup with the 10's and Zippers. My son has the 4Snows and they're unreal in the powder. I've been waiting to see if anyone has any problems running the 10's. I run Quebec all the time.
