im looking into getting a 150 for the summer, and i live on a 25%-35% grade mountain in vermont, will it work?

the 150 do pretty good if you change the rollers, clutch springs and main spring. I have a twister 150, a blade 250 and a carter xp 150. the 250 does better on hills right out of the box.

the 150's do very well with the cvt changes

If you live in the mountains, you'll probably be pretty disappointed with climbing ability out of the box... but as BigE said... a few simple CVT changes make a WORLD of difference.

If you have some steep climbs... I'd suggest a larger rear axel sprocket as well. Made a huge difference for my 150 Talon. Went from a stock 32 tooth to 39 tooth... and it's fairly simple to do. Went from slug to mountain goat. (be careful taking off the bearings when you're removing the axel).
