I've done a lot of research on plows, but need some opinions on blade width preference. I have a Rubicon and a 140' driveway - not huge, but you guys make plowing sound like so much fun and I hate my little 2-cycle snowblower that works like crap. Anyway, I found a dealer with a good price on Cycle Country stuff. He recommends the 48" since he claims they have had hardware problems when the wide 60" catches an edge and binds. The 48" might be more manageable for my size driveway as well, but I was wondering if it's smaller size is a pain due to the Rubicon width and snow rolling back off the edges of the blade.

Any opinions would be great since this is the one issue holding me back.
Thanks,
K2

 

Thete appears to be quite a few comments in the "honda" forum about blade size.. those with 48" blades regret not getting 60" blades.

Now, I have to ask...is there anybody that knows a dealer that will ship to canada...with reasonable prices..??

Thanks!

 

There is a canadian mail order distributor called Royal distrubiting they carry the Cycle Country plows 1-800-265-2970. They are online as well @
www.royaldistributing.com. Beware I had a bad experience with them, you might be wise to go with a American mail order firm. The Americans know how to please and keep their customers. I've always had good luck and great service from any US based mail order company.

 

Go with the 60in. My buddy got the 48 and I Got the 60. He admits he made a mistake. I have mine mounted on a 96 Foreman and it works great. And if you have a winch to hook up to it great but if you don't, you don't need it. The manual lift works great and is easy to use, my five year old can lift it easily. Relax people! no my five year old does'nt ride or plow with my Foreman.That was'nt aimed at all of you, but if you are insulted then it probobly was aimed at you. K2 I do a lot of drives for my family and neighbors, big and small no problems with the 60.

 

I have a 60" Moose straight plow and it works great with my Rubicon. I plow our driveway that is more than 200 feet and have no troubles pushing snow, just wish there was some snow right now to plow, it plows faster and can get closer to buildings than truck plows.

 

Anyone ever use the Cycle country vee plow blade .got one yesterday was thinkin g of getting 60 straight .instead
Any benefit using vee blade
