| Q: |
How does it affect turning? |
| A: |
The bike steers as easy as without tracks.
-The turning radius does increase to approximately that of a two up bike.
-The ski kit makes maneuvering on snow very easy. |

|
| Q: |
Does the track kit add undue strain to the bikes drive line? |
| A: |
No, the tracks in most cases eases strain in the fact that the bike is not stuck in mud or snow.
- The friction factor on this system is very low. You can manually push the bike like it had no tracks on it.
- Try to push other track systems around your garage by hand! |

| Q: |
How big is the footprint? |
| A: |
A bike on tires is approx 256sq inches, tracks increase the footprint by a factor of 5 to approx 1248 sq inches.

| Q: |
Do the tracks fall off? |
| A: |
Extensive testing in all conditions have seen our guides evolve to ensure that tracks remain on the bike.
- If however you accidentally cut a track off, the bike can be driven home on the tires!
- Try that with other track systems! |

|
| Q: |
Do the drive wheels slip in the tracks? |
| A: |
No, the tread of the drive tire engages approx 5/8 of its circumference with the internal drive lugs of the track.
- Because this is a rubber to rubber contact, ice or mud does not affect traction. |
