MAXTRAX LITE is the light, shorter member of the family. Each board weighs about 4 lb, close to half an MKII, which matters when the boards ride on a roof rack with a weight limit or come out of the van often. It's the lowest-cost way into MAXTRAX boards, with the same lifetime warranty. Sold as a pair, in black.
Features
- Light: about 1.8 kg (4 lb) per board, 48% lighter than the MKII.
- Compact: 35" long, about 22% shorter than the MKII and XTREME.
- 66 aggressive teeth per board to grab the tire tread.
- Double ramp and two shovel ends for getting under the tire and clearing a path.
- Four handles spaced for the shorter board.
- Impact-resistant thermoplastic (a different blend from the MKII's nylon) to keep the weight down.
- Mounting pin holes that also link LITE boards to each other or to other MAXTRAX boards.
- Lifetime warranty; made in Australia.
Specs
- Size per board: about 35" x 13" (895 mm long)
- A pair stacks to about 3.7" (95 mm)
Mounting
Carry them on a rack with MAXTRAX Universal Mounting Pins, which take any mix of LITE, MKII and XTREME boards, and lock them with a MAXLOX padlock.
FAQs
LITE or MKII for a van?
For light use and weight-conscious builds, the LITE is plenty. If you're often off pavement in a heavy 4x4 van, the longer MKII gives more board under the tire.
