85

85 is the lowest Spin Track currently available. 85 shows valuable use in Attack customizations, but the main downfall is that its low height makes it easy for it to scrape on the stadium floor. 85 is a top tier Track for Attack and Stamina customizations.

Beyblade: Mercury Anubius 85XF

90

  • Weight: 0.9 grams
90

90 was the lowest Track until the release of 85 with Mercury Anubis. Its low height is good for both low Attack customizations and low Stamina customizations, but is outclassed slightly in both regards by the aforementioned 85.

Beyblade: Quetzalcoatl 90WF, Screw Capricorne 90MF, Bakushin Susanow 90WF

100

100 Track
  • Weight: 1.0 grams

100 is currently the third lowest Track available. Its low height allows Attack-based Wheels such as Storm to make good contact with opposing Tracks and Wheels.

Beyblade: Lightning L Drago 100HF, Wind Aquario 100HF/S, Cyber Pegasis 100HF, Ray Gil 100RSF

105

105 Track
  • Weight: 1.0 grams

This track is currently the fourth lowest track available, but is outclassed in terms of Attack and Stamina by the 85, 90, and 100 Tracks. 105 has no problem with floor scrapes, but still is an outclassed part and should only be chosen when none of the aforementioned Tracks are available.

Beyblade: Pegasis 105F, Storm Pegasis 105RF, Aquario 105F, L Drago 105F

CH120: Change 120

CH120
  • Weight: 2.7 grams

CH120 is unique as it features a height-changing gimmick. The user is allowed a choice of using 120 or 145 as the Track's height. This is done by rotating the bottom portion of the Track and pulling/pushing the central part out/in, and then rotating the bottom portion back to lock the height. Importantly, this can be done between each round of a match, as it does not involve any part-swapping.

The advantages of this Track are plentiful. Its most obvious benefit is allowing the user to change the height of their Beyblade between rounds; this means that the user can adapt their strategy to counter the opponents during a match. CH120 is currently the only Track featuring a 120 height. This height is useful for many Attack types.

Beyblade: Dark Cancer CH120SF, Mad Cancer CH120FS

125

  • Weight: 1.0 grams
125

The 125 Track is a midway between the 105 and the 145 Tracks. Utilised in mid-height stamina combos, it is more difficult to destablise compared to 145 height stamina combos. It has declined in popularity as the choice mid-height track due to the release of T125 and D125.

Beyblade: Bull 125SF, Aries 125D

D125: Defense 125

Defense 125 is similar to 125 and T125. Apart from the shifts in weight distribution and air resistance, there are few notable differences. The ring serves no significant defensive purposes. D125 is an outclassed track for Stamina and Defense customizations. It can be used in some Attack customizations.

Beyblade:Ray Unicorno D125CS, Rock Orso D125B, Counter Leone D125B

T125: Tornado 125

T125
  • Weight: 1.7 grams

T125 has four upward-facing wing protrusions spaced apart widely. The Track is designed to work in a similar way to DF145, although the effect it produces is negligible. The performance of this Track is similar to D125. It is used in some Attack and Stamina customizations.

Beyblade: Flame Libra T125ES, Thermal Pisces T125ES, Rock Escolpio T125JB, Grand Ketos T125RS, Scythe Kronos T125EDS

WA130: Wing Attacker 130

  • Weight: 2.2 grams

WA130 is a 130-height Track with two aerofoil-shaped wings that rotate freely around the Track. By removing this piece, and flipping it over, the direction of the wings can be changed. These wings are negligible in battle: while they offer minor protection against lower Attack-Type opponents, there are better Tracks for this purpose. As the wings can scrape along the stadium floor, causing a loss of spin, WA130 is useless in Stamina combinations.

The main appeal of this Track is its height. The 130 height has proven useful in certain Attack customisations. However, as it cannot make contact with lower opponents due to its free-spinning nature, it is considered less useful for this purpose than S130. In addition, the most popular user of this height, Fang, already comes with a plain 130 Track in its only release, Fang Leone 130W²D. As WA130 offers little advantage over 130, it is not considered a worthwhile purchase.

Beyblade: Thermal Lacerta WA130HF

145

145
  • Weight: 1.5 grams

145 is used in Stamina customs to great effect due to its tall height, which allows for more wobbling as the Beyblade loses its spin velocity.

Beyblade: Earth Aquila 145WD, Leone 145D, Rock Leone 145WB, Sagittario 145S, Basalt Horogium 145WD

C145: Claw 145

C145
  • Weight: 3.2 grams

C145 has three wings which extend outwards, each separately joined onto the underside of the Track. These are free moving, and hence when the Beyblade is launched, these point outwards due to spin velocity. Their free moving nature make them very effective for defensive purposes, as they are able to withstand low hits to the Track without significant spin loss. Furthermore, the Track is significantly heavier than non-gimmicked Tracks such as 145, providing extra weight essential for Defense.

Beyblade: Flame Sagittario C145S

DF145: Down Force 145

DF145
  • Weight: 3 grams

DF145 has four upward facing wings protruding from the top of the Track, which aside from giving it extra weight are meant to push air downwards. It is now outclassed for use in Stamina combinations. Intead, tracks such as AD145, 145, 100, 90, and even 85 are used.

Beyblade: Dark Wolf DF145FS, Killer Gemios DF145FS, Virgo DF145BS, Libra DF145BS

ED145: Eternal Defense 145

  • Weight: 3.6 grams
ED145

ED145 features three “wings” which rotate around the Track freely. The wings are similar to that of WD145. Because of their free-spinning nature, they can be used in Defense customisations, such as MF Libra ED145WB; however, the defensive capabilities of this part are not as effective as C145, as it does not absorb hits as successfully. The wings which rotate are hindered without the mechanism of a bearing, hence creating a force of friction between the wings and the body of the Track, in turn resulting in less significant damage absorption. Furthermore, it is easy for the low attacker’s Wheel to be caught between the Wheel and ED145, hence causing a lot of recoil and spin reduction to the Defense customization.

Beyblade: Clay Aries ED145B

GB145: Gravity Bowl 145

GB145
  • Weight: 4.5 grams

GB145 is a wide, round track featuring two free moving metal balls. These balls move toward the outside of the track while spinning, causing some additional spin retaining force. Weighing in at 4.5 grams, GB145 is currently the second heaviest track available, and as such is extremely useful in Defense customizations. Because it lacks energy-absorbing free spinning wings, it is not as effective as C145 against low attackers such as Quetzalcoatl 90RF. However, the increased weight increases stability, which is very useful in Defense customizations

Beyblade: Earth Virgo GB145BS, Infinity Libra GB145S

H145: Horn 145 (First Mold)

H145 (First Mold)
  • Weight: 4 grams

H145 has two wings with two various protrusions, representing the horns of a Bull surrounding its perimeter. These four points are meant to provide Smash Attack, and they do succeed on some levels. However, because the horns are so pronounced, and because the gaps between the wings are so wide, significant recoil is produced, especially when used in combination with small Metal Wheels that allow the Horns to extend well past the perimeter of the Wheel.

While H145 may not be an entirely noteworthy part as far as competitive customizations go, it is still quite a fun part to play with. You can score many impressive KO's with the recoil it produces in the first few seconds of a battle, but at the same time, this recoil does work against you in some battles, causing a self-KO or if not, a severe loss of Stamina.

Beyblade: Dark Bull H145SD

H145: Horn 145 (Second Mold)

H145 (Second Mold)
  • Weight: 4.3 grams

H145 has two different molds. The first version's wings were not reinforced in anyway, so they were prone to breakages in some cases. The second mold which was brought into production a couple months after it was originally released rectified this problem by reinforcing the wings with a significant amount of plastic between the inside of the wings and the outside of the Track. This increased the weight of the Track to 4.3 grams, only .2 grams lighter than the second heaviest Track, GB145. The increased weight not only reduces breakages, but it also marginally helps reduce the recoil it produces.

Beyblade: Dark Bull H145SD

WD145: Wide Defense 145

WD145
  • Weight: 3.6 grams

WD145 features three “wings”. The wings are similar to that of ED145, the only difference being that its wings cannot spin freely. The defensive capabilities of this part are outclassed in all areas by other Defensive Tracks, such as C145, GB145, and 230, as it does not absorb hits as successfully. Furthermore, it is easy for the low attacker’s Wheel to be caught between the Wheel and WD145, causing a lot of recoil and spin reduction in the process.

Beyblades: Grand Ketos T125/WD145RS, Escolpio WD145B

SW145: Switch 145

SW145
  • Weight: 4.2 grams

SW145 has three 'wings'. The gimmick of this Track is the ability to change from Attack to Defense by taking off the wings, and then putting them on the opposite way. The purpose of this is the ability to adapt to opponent Beys. In Attack mode, which is denoted by six grey claw-like stickers on the underside, the pointed ends of the Track are used for Smash Attack; meanwhile in Defense mode, shown by three triangular blue stickers, the edges are more rounded, in order to deflect opponent Beys. The modes are reversed for Left-Spin Beys. Testing has shown that SW145 is quite useful at attacking lower opponents in a similar fashion to H145 and R145. It is however outclassed for Defense purposes by GB145, BD145, and 230 due to the recoil it produces.

Beyblade: Poison Serpent SW145SD

R145: Rubber 145

R145
  • Weight: 4.7 grams

R145 consists of three wings similar in shape to WD145, but instead the wings are made of a hard rubber. The concept behind the track was to deflect lower attackers and absorb impact. However, it suffers the same problems that WD145 does, in that it's possible for the attacker's Wheel to be caught in between the Wheel and R145, causing recoil and spin reduction in the process. For this reason, R145 is outclassed as a Defense Track by other options such as GB145, BD145, and 230.

While outclassed in Defense customizations, R145 has found use in Attack customizations due to its three wing shape and fairly heavy weight compared to most tracks.

Beyblade : Rock Giraffe R145WB

BD145: Boost Disk 145

BD145: Normal Mode
BD145: Boost Mode
  • Weight: 8.0 grams

BD145 shares a similar trait with its partner Hell, in that, like Hell is one of the widest Metal Wheels ever released, BD145 is the widest Track ever. This Track is unique both because of its width and also its ability to change modes. Changing modes is similar to how it is done with SW145, however this time, instead of removing the changeable part from the bottom and flipping it, it is removed from the top and then flipped. BD145 has two modes:


Normal Mode

In Normal Mode the "Boost Disk" sits lower on the Track, which causes most Beyblades to scrape the Beystadium floor easily due to the three downward facing protrusions. However, when using a taller Bottom such as RF, this tendency is lessened somewhat, and the wide diameter of BD145, while it is not able to necessarily provide Smash Attack, it assists in "pushing" the opposing Beyblade out of the Beystadium.


Boost Mode

Boost Mode works exclusively in combination with Hell. The three upward facing protrusions on BD145 go past the bottom of the Metal Wheel into the gaps of Hell itself and unlike Normal Mode, there is absolutely no space between the Metal Wheel and Boost Disk. This mode has proven to be incredibly effective in Stamina, Defense, and even Attack customizations.

Beyblade: Hell Kerbecs BD145DS

230

  • Weight 4.1 grams

230 is the tallest Track released thus far. 230 is part of the Maximum Series, and is labeled as the Maximum Height for Tracks. 230 has six indents near the top of the Track that sharpen downwards to about the half of the Track. 230 is rounder and thicker than regular Tracks with no gimmicks, in order to protect it structurally as it comes into regular contact with opposing Wheels. Its round and smooth shape results in significantly less recoil than if it were based on the traditional hexagonal Track shape. Since 230 is so tall, it can wobble at great lengths for extra Stamina, defeating various Stamina customizations with lower Tracks. From a defensive viewpoint, it uses its height as an advantage to protect itself from low incoming Attacks, by protecting the Metal Wheel from major contact while using the reinforced plastic to absorb most of the shock. As a result of this, 230 can defeat most low Attack customizations under the 120 height when paired with other top-tier Defense parts.

230 also has some notable weaknesses, however. As a Defense Track, 230 is extremely susceptible to tall Track Attack types in the opposite spin direction such as MF Lightning L Drago BD145LRF and MF Gravity Perseus BD145RF. Additionally, TH170 at 220 height is successful against 230-based customizations, while also offering height-based versatility at the same time.

Beyblade: Flame Byxis 230WD
