What is the Ultimate Backcountry Snowbike?

We compared a 450 and 500cc bike to see which one was the ultimate backcountry snowbike. Head to head hill climbs to determine the winner.

Sweet video!!! Close call on the sink hole

Amazing nature, amazing snowbikes, amazing riding skills! Just a pleasure to watch! Wish it was 4k🤗

Have you gone into setting’s while watching the video and adjusted your video quality? I find that KZbin will often put the videos I watch in a lower resolution. You might want to try advanced mode under quality and make sure your set to 1080p HD. I find they look much better after that.

@@coleeades sure, I've watched in FHD.) It's good on mobile phones, but have a bit low bitrate on big 4k monitors.) Close objects are ok, but those wich are further not so clear.)

Thanks for the feedback and appreciate you watching 👍

Great vid bro. The section where it was real tight got me thinking, this is why we love bikes!

Awesome! Just bought a ktm 450 with an aro 120le and it's just started snowing today in N. Idaho!

[@coleeades]

I'm getting excited to ride! Hopefully soon!

Hi! What model of Pelican case did you installed on your snow bike and how did you mount it? Thanks!

[@coleeades]

It’s the Apache case from Harbor Freight. It’s the 3800 model. I just drilled holes through the case and tunnel and put it together with bolts, washers, nuts and some silicone sealant to keep out water.

I’ve switched between owning 450’s and 500’s every year. Each has their own merit. The low hitting torque on the 500 is addicting. The high reving power of the 450 is addicting. Can’t make a bad choice! If you want a trail bike for the summer than the 500 is the best.

[@coleeades]

Totally agree with all of that. We still ride both on snow!

[@BoostedRT]

Sweet video, do you guys ride cache valley a lot. I live up here and always looking for more people to ride with.

[@coleeades]

Yup! We ride Logan Canyon & Immigration Canyon a bunch. Let’s ride!
