How long do cheap maxx traxx last?

[OverlandG-wagon]

I am thinking of getting some cheap maxx traxx before I get the real deal just to see if I really need them because as you may know the things are bloody expesive!

How long to the cheaper ones last? I would like them to do a few recoveries before they brake as I have seen on some forums and videos that there are cases where they have broken from the first recovery.

Has anyone here had any experience with them?

You mean cheap traction boards? Max Trax doesn't have any cheap options. LOL

If you talking about cheap traction boards, it depends on how you are using them, and how often. There is a good video I watched some time ago comparing traction boards. Let me see if I can find for you.

That didn't take long to find. This was a fun video to watch too:

A friend of mine has some cheap knock offs for half a hear now and they have not broken yet. He has used them about 4-5 times. I would get them to see if I actually need them or not

well, it depends on how often and how hard you will use them. They may brake on the first recovery or the 10th. They won't last long for sure though
