Simplify self recovery with our quick deploy Z-Drag kit.

The combination of roller cams provides a 4:1 pulling ratio for self recovery and a 5:1 ratio when you have help. A laminated instruction card is included in the bag.

Great product, but I wish they had a smaller and lighter version for small bikes with limited storage space

Z-Drag Saved my butt!

I just got back home from a multi day solo BDR trip, last day of trip I got myself into quite a pickle with my Africa Twin, without the Z-Drag I would’ve been absolutely screwed and not home right now sitting in my recliner. It worked incredibly well and it will remain a permanent fixture in my gear setup, I WILL NOT leave home without it now.

Peace of mind!

Good quality and easy to use. Good insurance to have, especially when riding solo. Hopefully, I'll never have to use it, but I'll be glad that I have it, if I ever do!

Freaking Great Tool

First time out, laid it in the mud. Your device, tool, came in so freaking handy the first time I was totally amazed at how it was to use your device. Thank you very much for such a great tool out in the back backwoods! It truly was a Godsend to have when you’re 62 and still feel 22

Will pull a 98 summit 670 in snow with a locked up track with one one arm back saver forsure I got it for the dirt bike but it's a back saver with a sled
