Thinking about a snow bike this year but I'm wondering if I can keep up with the sleds on the trails? What kinda speeds can you maintain on the trails with one of these things ?

All depends on how big of a bike you have really. 650 Husaberg you can pull more gear than a 450. What kit? 2moto or Timbersled? One has a bigger track than the other so that will suck more power than the other. Haven't seen anyone breaking any speed records when we've been out with a few of them, but never had one out on a nice flat long straight trail either......
