Rode a newer proclimb a couple of times, and they seem to do the job.

They do collect snow, ( got pics to prove it.. LOL), but ride ok on the hills... Power is decent, but suck on the flat...You almost need them to be on the side of the hill to have the feel of them.

Glove warmer seems to work... for real..

That's about it.. Thanks

I rode with a 14 m8000 like you said nice power. But the snow did stick lol. The guy who bought it came off a 2010 m8 at the end of the day he wished he had his old m8 back.

i dis like their whole hood/intake/headlight assembly. What a complex and heavy system. even the tunnel. its like 30 pieces riveted together. why make it so complicated.... manufacturing of it must be a bitch. The m does look ancient in comparison, i think they need to think more mx bike simple and less gold wing gaudy.

Didnt even make it to the new year, and the bashing has started. People must be going through snow withdrawls and nothing better to do but sit in front of the monitor!! Good on yas

bashing or not, that's exactly how I felt about them too. if your climbing or on an incline, they straight up WORK. on the flat they're a POS to try and get to do what you want.

For all you guys that think the m is outdated here's a few pics for ya. The basic geometry is identical to a pro. Same foot wells, handlebar position,seat position. My cat is 4" narrower than the pro. Yet one is junk and the other is the greatest.

I still prefer my old M chassis over the Proclimb. I'd take my sons XM off his hands in a heartbeat though. Doo finally made a sled I can ride. :D

I agree , the xm is very similar to a m. I liked the xm within seconds of riding it. To me the pro is super easy to ride also.

Doo and poo copied the M and then cat goes and copies the rev. Brutal. Maybe the next chasis cat can copy the 1992 phaser.

That may be but I got to spend a bit of time on a 13 153 proclimb and really like it. With the price difference my next sled might be one.
