While I’ve never ridden in a Litetrax, I can imagine that the short track length could lead to some uncomfortable pitching (fore-aft rocking). By way of example, Imps have significant pitch, and they likely have a longer track length than Litetrax. On anything but a completely flat trail, the pitch factor forces your travel speed to be much lower than you want it to be. This is probably most pronounced in places with soft snow and snowmobile moguls (i.e. Colorado, Utah). If you are traveling through unbroken snow across meadows, probably no big deal. But I imagine any well-traveled, un-groomed trail would get bothersome for anything but a short jaunt.
