I just got done riding one of "HYGEAR SUSPENSIONS" prototype FX NYTROS...... all i can say is WWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWW !!!!!!!!!. Those guys really know what they are doing, the sled rode like a dream. Absolutely no darting, not even when i let off the gas. They said that they'll have a few different packages available, for every different type riding preference. The rear suspension felt like nothing like i've ever riden. It handled ever thing from the little bumps to the MONSTER ones. I can tell you one thing for sure, I'll be ordering my new set up from these guys. THANKS FOR THE DEMO RIDE HYGEAR KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK !!!!!! :jump: :yam:
 

I rode the blue sled on Sunday it was better than what my sled is by far. I do think it was a standard because Ross was showing me the Reese he added to mid shock and it also had dual spring front clicker shocks .I would say he is a hardcore rider as he rode my sled and I rode his and he was hard to keep up with on his much better set up sled . We talked for a while and he is very smart on suspension set ups. I would recommend his co. any day . Dave

What did they do to it?? Just re valve?? Did they put piggy's on the floats?? did they replace the shocks??

Was this set up for aggressive trail?? Anything you can tell us would help people determine what they might want from these guys.

Thanks.
 
THEY REVALVED EVERYTHING. AND YES THEY PUT PIGGY BACKS ON THE FLOATS. THE WAY THIS SLED WAS SET UP WAS FOR aggressive trail RIDING.
 
They have a variety of setups starting from simple revalve all the way to new springs, piggy back resevoirs and hi/lo compression valving. Just depends how much you want to spend.

Would love to hear more feedback on how the Standard FX performed and what was done to it ?
 
one guy says it had floats ..... the other says standard coil shock.....? how many sleds does Ross have...?

did the center shock have a dual rate spring....?
 
They have RTX's and Standard's they test with, last time I spoke to Ross he had the RTX nailed and was just finishing off the standard. He prefer's the GYT-R to the Floats finds them a more tuneable and durable shock.

He was working on dialing in the Standard and the front end would go from planted to nervous with very slight change so they were fighting with that trying to get it nailed.
 
The one I rode had standard front and a reservoir added to mid shock . It also had adjustable a arms on the top .I did not know if he had another but he was also tuning a 09 e-tec and 08 800x ski-doo. Dave.
