denali sled decks, any good?

[handyandy]

I want to buy a sled deck for this winter and saw that denali sells an 8.5' deck with expandable sides for $1700. Seems like a good deal, makes me wonder why they are so much cheaper than other decks though

Three guys I ride with all have them and they've been good decks.They stand up equally as well as my Marathon. You'll have to re-wire it, cuz the Chinese wiring sucks, but structurally they're just fine. You can do a lot of wiring for the price difference!

Now the cheap Chinese crap comments can begin! It's inevitable on S&M!

Thanks! A little re-wiring is fine for me a long as their good structurally. I just can't justify spending $3000 for a deck that I'm not going to use much.

Cheap because built in China.

I have had one for 2 years now and its been great no issues except I rewired mine!

One thing i would recommend is taking a couple 2x4's and cutting them to fit between the legs and make them more rigid, if you're not bolting it down, some people have complained about the welds cracking because the legs can wiggle back and forth a bit as they're not connected together at the base.

Princess auto sells them. Red ones easy to come by, the orange ones you gotta time it, those little guys get snatched up like hookers on a battleship.

I may have a bunch of spares, i freaked out when i seen them in stock and i think i bought like 7 or 8 orange ones and like 10 red ones.
