Actually I have not heard of any bending the stock axle. In fact everyone I know races the stock. But that is XC. But the axle is chromoly.

Last I knew the factory Polaris axles are made by TEAM, they are very strong.

I have cased a few jumps pretty hard and never bent my axle but I did bend the hell out of two sets of rear factory rims tho.

that makes me feel better about geting the hubs then becaues i bend a ltr 450 axle on a up hill triple about 75 feet and flat spoted both rims that day hope the polaris axle is up to that
