This might come in handy for other people. In my opinion, it's pointless but for people who are obsessed with weight, maybe it will do good.

umm doesn't it make more sense to ride parts that are balanced to begin with?
like if u want it back heavy just run an AL fork and put a solid core on back. front heavy? well run a chromo fork. Kinda a good idea but excessive. This isn't fkin GOLF. only the weight freaks who care more about their scooter than their riding will buy.

Also i bet pple who don't even know how to put together a proper scoot are gonna see this and think they need it when theres still other parts combos and free ways to balance it haha

not a bad idea. but "integrated with ICS". why re companies still banging on about ICS. it was a stopgap solution, a way to go threadless cheaply. i cant see how a company that has taken so long to bring a product to market has not bothered to move away from ics

well what if there arnt any chromo forks you like? or you dont want to buy new forks or full cores just to balance your scooter? you could take the cheaper route and buy the ballast and have a well balanced scooter.

or you could realize that there is nothing wrong with having a front heavy scooter and this is just stupid.

seems like Addict is just trying to make more money off of stupid little kids who dont know any better.

They are trying something original to further customization and feel, we have had years of being forced to ride pro models and accept what ever it felt like, I can;t knock them for doing something that nobody in this industry has thought of. Innovation comes in small, subtle steps.

And anyone knows anything about Addict knows they aren't in this shit for money, don't even try to put them in that category dude, Addict isn't even marketed to children like Madd or other brands are, it has a more rugged approach to both riding and design. Don't mistake their motives

who owns Addict? the owner of District as far as i know is supplying all their funds and owns most of it. im tired of everybody hoping on Addicts dick and talking shit about almost every other company just because they arent "rider owned"

i still think they are the most overrated company out there
