simmons carbide ?

[Thumper1000]

What are you guys running for carbides on your simmons flexi skis, if you have replaced the carbides who's did you use or recommend. Anybody have Bergstroms on there simmons and what size. Thanks

I have the berstroms triple carbides on. I bought them last year and have about 700 miles of gravel on them. Held up great. I got 8", but would recomend 6" if doing again. I use 6" Simmons (standard sharp) on the outside. The Berstroms turn much better than the standard Simmons.

Yes, run the Simmons Triple Point with a 6" carbide on the inside part of the Simmons, and normal wear bars on the outside. The Berstrom carbide will last a lot longer than other brands, and they carve in the snow. I have both 4" and 6" on the outside and it is really hard to tell a difference between the two.
