Testimonials

I ride with a group of guys, mostly off trail, where the buddy tow has come in handy. So much so that we needed to get a few more of these in the group for peace of mind...the buddy tow is an essential item in my gear list for big trips. Things happen and the buddy tow has saved my bacon in the past. Can't recommend it enough.

Years ago I blew a gear in my chain case and had to get my sled with a locked up track off the lake, it took me two days to pull it off due to the slush and difficult conditions. After that I researched for better ways to tow a sled. I found this and bought it 5y ago, I never used it till now. My rear pivot arm on my Yamaha sidewinder snapped while going down the trail and locked my track up. My buddy went back to our truck and trailer and got the buddy tow pro and It was unbelievable how easily it was to tow my 4stroke machine down the trail with the buddy tow pro. It saved us hours of work. Highly Recommend.

We were on a trip in northern mn had a driveshaft brake in half blowing chain case apart and locking track. I had bought one of these sets but knew we were going to damage it with 144 studs in track, we pulled this sled 25 miles with studs across 3 roads with 1 man on drive sled no one on broke down sled no burnt belts no hurt backs. Only pin holes in it from studs and a little rash from roads and it's still useable. I now own 3 (1 on each sled) we would have had to cut the track off if we didn't have this with.!! Even if you never use it it only takes once its money in the bank buy one!

Hey Tom,

The product is outstanding. Way easier to fit than I expected. I can put the whole thing into my Klim NicNak backpack and still have room for my other stuff.

It’s so light but no surprise given it’s just plastic. It installs in a couple of minutes. The only difference with the snowbike vs sled is that I cannot easily lock the brake.

So my solution instead is to bungee the front of the BuddyTow to the frame of the bike itself rather than the bike rotating track.

It’s great on the uphill and great on the flat. If on a camber, the rear can slide out if the lead bike that is towing hasn’t cut much of a track because the snow is hard packed. Downhill is still an issue and always will be. The 2 runners you supplied help keep it tracking in hard pack, but anything steep is an issue and we had to unhook the tow rope and instead paddle downhill alone with the rear of the bike sliding left or right depending on the camber. As I say, that can’t easily be fixed and you can deal with this well enough.

So in summary, snow bikes have many mechanicals (we reckon 25% for our group this season!!). I would now never ride without this. It just saves the drama and gets you out quickly and with relative ease. Please forward this to any other snow bikers out there and feel free to give my email

Best wishes,

Peter

I have had to use the Buddy Tow on more than one occasion and it is the premier dead sled towing product. It's lightweight and durable, and makes the towed sled virtually weightless! I would recommend this product to all brands of sledders!! Keep Rockin'!!

BRAAAAAAAAAAPPPP!!!

On a trip to West Yellowstone this winter, a buddy's crank broke, locking up the track. We worked our tails off and wasted a full day hauling his sled in. I came home and searched "snowmobile towing products" and found the Buddy Tow. Man, I wish we had had one that day. I've bought the PRO model, and while I hope I never need it, I'm sure glad to have one on hand.

I was in a group riding in Colorado when we had a sled go down 10 miles from the trailer. The snow was deep and we were in a tough spot. We were glad we had a Buddy Tow along. That thing saved the day for us!

Got this just in time. A fellow rider broke down in the rhubarb and it saved the day for us! Thanks Buddy Tow!!
