Welcome to Frozen Moto Motorsports

At Frozen MOTO Industries we strive to take a dirt bike and produce a snow bike that is both technologically advanced and driven through rider innovation!

The Track System

The Frozen MOTO SMX and SMR track systems are a patent pending design that incorporates true dirt bike geometry back into this exciting and growing snow bike industry.  At Frozen MOTO we have painstakingly designed these systems around the bike from your bars to the drive and foot pegs then right back to the last idler wheels!

The standard industry 121 track is used in the SMX & SMR track systems. Track location and positioning is a critical aspect when riding differing conditions and having a variable attack angle is critical to get that true “dirt bike” feel.  The patent pending “Broken Rail” allows Frozen MOTO to be the only industry manufacturer allowed to create the versatile attack angle built into every SMX or SMR snow bike, regardless if your a racer or mountain free rider this is an infinitely adjustable system to fit your needs!

The award winning Rekluse clutch is a perfect compliment to your Frozen MOTO system for additional bike/snow bike performance!

Factory Engineered Suspension

Being a company in the emerging snow bike industry Frozen MOTO was faced with some unique and additional challenges. We were amazed when Elka Suspension stepped up to engineer the next level in snow bike suspension and reengineered shocks for our unparalleled technology.

Partnering with Elka Susupension gives us a dirt and snow sports industry leading suspension manufacturer. Together we are able to couple the most amazing and technologically advanced susupension ever seen in the snow biking industry with the Frozen MOTO labeled track system!

Our team has worked and tested for nearly a thousands of hours last and we continue to give Elka rider driven seat time to create a perfect balance of both single speed and dual speed compression rates giving you protection from both the slower, or big, and faster, or smaller repeated, hits as well. By providing rebound options available on the Frozen MOTO, the Elka Stage 5 platform gives the system an extra container and high speed compression adjustment! You pick your needs and Frozen MOTO builds to those needs again industry firsts in manufacturing and rider driven control.

Frozen MOTO also utilizes one shock on the outside to allows the SMX and SMR track systems to fly thru and alleviate additional strain and stress on the complete track system and rider allowing you to take the most aggressive line through those otherwise miserable whoops on the track and braking bumps on the trail!

What that means to Frozen MOTO and more importantly to you the customer is that Frozen MOTO strives to have rider driven advancment. The SMX and SMR can also be adjusted depending on rider weight and conditions through an interchangeable spring rate coil over which then utilizes fluid not air to match the ever changing challenges and conditions that mother nature can provide allowing you additional hours of riding! From deep powder filled winter days to getting in and out of spring riding on those frozen trails, Frozen MOTO has you covered!

Billeted Ski System

The unique front ski system is not only functional but design with style and flair being a solid billeted piece giving you strength and integrity for years to come! The Frozen MOTO ski system utilizes a four piece bolted design, not a welded design giving you the ability to replace specific parts without the added cost of a complete replacement should you have a little too much fun.

The bolted area is designed as a stress point so they can be easily repaired or replaced on scene and does not allow for the creation of additional damage to your complete snow bike/dirt bike system. The ski plate is designed and bolted directly to the fork and to the unique spindle. Four bolts creating the designed brake away location give you the ability to insert new bolts and continue to ride. This system has been extensively tested and has passed testing with “flying” colors!

The Polaris IQ footprint of the spindle is mounted to the Curve Industries XS ski creating the most advanced and reliable snow bike front end to date! You can also attach any Polaris IQ mountable ski to the spindle.

Two-Mount Mounting System

The Frozen MOTO mounting system is a a two piece design that aids in the patent pending technology. This system combines a small fit mount that connects any bike with a swing arm to the main mount. The first mount attachs to a main frame mount that then attaches to the second pivot point in the geometry at the hub.

What to Know Before Converting a Dirt Bike Into a Snow Bike

TLDR

A snow bike conversion replaces the dirt bike’s rear wheel with a track system and the front wheel with a ski. Before buying a kit, verify host-bike compatibility, understand installation and maintenance requirements, check local riding rules, and learn how snow-bike handling differs from ordinary dirt riding. Backcountry snow also adds avalanche, weather, visibility, and mechanical risks that should be taken seriously.

A dirt bike is designed around two wheels.

A snow bike keeps the motorcycle and changes almost everything happening underneath it.

The rear wheel becomes a track.

The front wheel becomes a ski.

That basic idea helped make companies such as Frozen MOTO part of the early modern snow-bike movement. In the early 2010s, Frozen MOTO built conversion systems designed to turn dirt bikes into winter machines.

If you are wondering what to know before converting a dirt bike into a snow bike, compatibility is only the first question.

Understand What the Kit Changes

A typical conversion system replaces:

Front: wheel with a ski assembly

Rear: wheel and related components with a track-and-suspension assembly

The motorcycle still provides:

  • Engine
  • Frame
  • Controls
  • Seat
  • Fuel system
  • Much of the familiar riding position

That is why a snow bike can retain more of a motorcycle feel than a conventional snowmobile.

But do not mistake familiar handlebars for identical handling.

The contact surfaces and terrain are completely different.

Verify Host-Bike Compatibility

Do not buy a used snow-bike kit because the seller says:

“It fits most dirt bikes.”

Find the actual compatibility information.

Important variables can include:

  • Manufacturer
  • Model
  • Year
  • Suspension layout
  • Engine size
  • Mounting hardware

Frozen MOTO historically produced kits with model-specific mounting hardware, and current snow-bike systems also treat the dirt bike itself as the host vehicle.

If you are buying an older conversion kit, confirm that the correct mounting pieces still exist.

A cheap kit without the right adapters may become an expensive metal sculpture.

Understand the Installation Before Buying

Some riders handle conversion work themselves.

Others use a dealer or experienced mechanic.

Before committing, determine:

  • Required tools
  • Installation time
  • Bike-specific hardware
  • Brake setup
  • Chain and sprocket setup
  • Track adjustment
  • Suspension changes

The manufacturer’s instructions should control the installation.

Do not improvise structural or safety-critical mounting because an internet photo “looks about right.”

Snow-Bike Riding Is Not Dirt-Bike Riding With Snow

Rider input matters differently.

Current Timbersled guidance tells new snow-bike riders to practice in a flat, open area before attempting mountainous terrain and specifically recommends practicing turning, leaning, braking, traversing, and throttle control.

That is useful advice regardless of brand.

Deep snow rewards momentum.

Hill traverses require body position.

Stopping in the wrong place can create a lot of digging.

Experienced dirt riders still have a learning curve.

Start Somewhere Easy

Do not make the first ride a major backcountry mission.

Find appropriate legal terrain where you can practice:

  • Starting
  • Stopping
  • Turning
  • Slow-speed balance
  • Getting unstuck
  • Throttle control

Learn what the machine does before adding steep terrain, trees, poor visibility, or avalanche exposure.

Being very good on a motorcycle does not automatically mean you understand mountain snow.

Backcountry Safety Is a Separate Skill

Snow bikes can access serious winter terrain.

That introduces hazards unrelated to normal trail riding.

Depending on where you ride, those can include:

  • Avalanche terrain
  • Rapid weather changes
  • Deep snow
  • Cold exposure
  • Poor visibility
  • Hidden obstacles
  • Remote mechanical breakdown

Get the appropriate avalanche and backcountry education for your riding area.

Ride with capable partners.

Current manufacturer safety guidance also recommends riding in manageable groups rather than alone.

A powerful machine does not replace winter judgment.

Stay Away From the Moving Track

This sounds obvious until maintenance starts.

A snow-bike track is exposed enough to create a serious entanglement hazard.

Current Polaris safety guidance specifically warns riders not to stand behind the machine or place hands, feet, or clothing near a moving track, including during warm-up.

Read the specific safety instructions for your system before operation or service.

Plan for More Maintenance

Snow introduces:

  • Moisture
  • Ice
  • Packed snow
  • Track wear
  • Different drivetrain loads

Inspect the machine regularly.

Follow the conversion-system maintenance schedule and the motorcycle manufacturer’s own maintenance requirements.

Keep common tools and spare items organized in a dedicated riding case.

For smooth tool cases or storage bins, custom vinyl stickers can make categories such as TOOLS, SPARES, and FIRST AID obvious when several riders are unloading similar black boxes.

Do not cover manufacturer safety warnings or required identification labels.

Check Rules Where You Ride

Vehicle classification, registration, trail access, and equipment requirements can vary by jurisdiction.

Do not assume that a legal dirt-bike trail is automatically a legal snow-bike route in winter.

Before the season:

  • Check local vehicle rules.
  • Check land-manager rules.
  • Check registration requirements.
  • Confirm seasonal closures.
  • Know where tracked vehicles are permitted.

This matters even more when traveling across state or provincial boundaries.

Decide Why You Want One

Snow bikes are especially appealing to riders who already like motorcycle handling and want to extend riding into winter.

But they are not simply lighter snowmobiles.

They have their own:

  • Strengths
  • Riding technique
  • Maintenance
  • Terrain preferences
  • Learning curve

The history of Frozen MOTO is a good example of where the concept came from. Founder Dan Shanahan described wanting something in winter that felt more like the dirt bikes he preferred riding, leading into the company’s development of snow-bike conversion systems.

That remains the basic appeal.

Learn the Machine Before Chasing the Terrain

What should you know before converting a dirt bike into a snow bike?

Make sure the kit actually fits.

Install it correctly.

Learn the maintenance.

Practice the handling.

Then build the winter skills needed for the places you want to ride.

The conversion itself gets you from wheels to track and ski.

It does not convert the rider into a backcountry expert.
