hey i went to the cynders bad ass some trails have some nasty whoops and it is dusty as hell u will come back for a ride and be dirty as hell. i trashed my skat trak haulers up there and my buddie had the same and the were fine so i dont know about that but would recommened molded paddles. and the gravel is soft not like the dunes u nee dto rev it up and dump the clutch in some areas to get going but its a lot of fun to ride. cant wait to go again
