MAXTRAX XTREME Pearl Bronze, 88 Alloy Teeth in a Striking Limited-Edition Finish
This isn't an MKII in a different colour. XTREME is a different class of recovery track entirely — and Pearl Bronze is a genuinely new, limited-edition finish for the range. Where every other recovery board on the market relies on moulded polymer cleats, MAXTRAX XTREME runs 88 hard-anodised alloy teeth, robot-inserted and over-moulded into a heavy-duty, engineering-grade reinforced nylon body. Metal teeth bite into your tyre tread harder and faster than any polymer track can.
Limited edition — once this run of Pearl Bronze sells out, it's not a standing colour in the range, so it's one to grab now if the finish is what you're after.
Why XTREME is a step up from every polymer board out there:
-
88 hard-anodised alloy teeth – alloy is significantly harder than tyre rubber and more resistant to wear from a spinning tyre than any polymer available today, so you get faster, more secure engagement with your tread pattern. That makes XTREME both the most durable and the fastest recovery track MAXTRAX builds.
-
Robot-inserted, over-moulded construction – each tooth is robot-placed into the injection mould, then over-moulded into the nylon body for a secure fit that resists both loosening and corrosion.
-
Hard-anodised for corrosion resistance – every tooth is treated to stand up to saltwater, mud, and harsh environments.
-
Repairable in the field – damage a tooth and you flip the board over, pull it with a T-50 Torx bit, and fit a replacement using MAXTRAX's patent-pending thread and blip-lock system. A damaged board isn't a write-off. (Replacement teeth kits and the custom T-head tool are sold separately.)
-
Built for professional use – XTREME was developed from direct feedback by elite military units, off-road racers and expedition leaders, delivering mission-critical performance where time and traction matter most.
-
Six glove-friendly handles – designed to be grabbed with gloves on, wet, cold, and in a hurry.
-
Nests with MAXTRAX MKII – already running MKIIs? XTREME stacks with them.
-
Mounts with hybrid pins and is compatible with MAXTRAX mini and linking kits, so you can build a portable roadway across long soft sections.
Specs: 1150mm L x 330mm W x 85mm H. 9kg per pair.
Aussie-made, backed for life. Designed, engineered and manufactured in Australia, with a lifetime warranty against faulty materials and workmanship.
What's included: 2 x MAXTRAX XTREME recovery tracks in the Pearl Bronze finish, plus telltale leashes so you can find your boards when they're buried.
If you're running hard rocky country, heavy loads, or remote work where a failed recovery is a genuine problem — and you want a finish that stands apart from the standard XTREME range — this is the board to grab while the run lasts.
FAQs
Q: How many boards do I get for the price? A: A full pair — 2 MAXTRAX XTREME recovery tracks, plus telltale leashes. This is not a single-board price.
Q: What's the actual difference between XTREME and the MKII? A: The MKII uses moulded polymer cleats; XTREME uses 88 hard-anodised alloy teeth over-moulded into the nylon body. Alloy is harder than tyre rubber and more wear-resistant than any polymer, so engagement with your tread is faster and more secure. The teeth are also individually replaceable in the field. XTREME runs about 9kg per pair versus 6.8kg for the MKII — you're trading a little weight for a lot more bite and durability.
Q: Is Pearl Bronze a permanent addition to the XTREME range? A: No — it's a limited-edition finish, so availability is finite. Once this run sells out, it won't necessarily be a standing colour option going forward.
Q: What happens if I damage a tooth? A: Flip the board, remove the damaged tooth with a T-50 Torx bit, and fit a replacement — the patent-pending thread and blip-lock system locks it securely back into its recess. Replacement tooth kits and the T-head tool are available separately.
Q: Can I run these with my existing MAXTRAX MKII boards? A: Yes. XTREME nests with MKII tracks and mounts with hybrid pins, so you can pair a set of XTREME with your current MKIIs.
Q: Is XTREME overkill if I just do the odd beach run? A: For occasional soft-sand work, the MKII does the job well and costs less. XTREME earns its money on hard rocky country, heavy loads, remote touring, motorsport, or commercial and expedition work where a fast, reliable recovery genuinely matters.
