Hello,
I have a 2007 apex mountain with and M10 suspension and had to buy a new track last week. It looks like the only ones with the dimensions I need are the Camoplast 9175M and the Composit Talon 66.6. I hear Composit isn't selling in Canada until 2017.
I bought the camoplast and it showed up today only to find it doesn't have sawtoothed paddles. I suspected this but the photos online show so many different versions of the same track that I wasn't sure. The dealer was confident it was saw toothed (as per Kimpex catalogue) and so I ordered it. I almost returned it when it showed up; but since I don't have many options (and would have to wait till next year for the Talon) I took it home.
I ride in Golden BC where it is pretty powdery, soft pack and slush in the spring. Rarely if ever am I on ice or really hard pack, but I am concerned this powder track (9175M) is going to be unstable on anything but powder.
Do you guys think I should keep the 9175M with the full lugs or would you recommend holding out until the Talon 66.6 comes out in Canada with the saw toothed lugs?
Track I need must be 162, 15", 3.0" pitch and 2.5" paddles (maybe get away 2.66" paddles like the talon).
Any opinion on these tracks/advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!

I should also add that the track I had on there was a Camoplast 9943M which I've heard is now discontinued. It was the original challenger series, very similar to this challenger extreme 9175M but it has saw toothed lugs.
