I dont think there is any bonus to having your scooter dialed, I don't have mine supremely dialed but at the same time it's not got masses and masses of play

I dont know if its just me, but whenever I am watching a video i find that a dialed scooter makes the tricks seem more clean.

even half dialing your scooter is better than none at all. More play, whether you notice the play or not, will wear parts out a lot faster than they should

I guess just because i work at a scooter shop i can always be available to tools to make my scooter dialed. It does piss me off when i dont have a dialed scoot, im super anal about it haha just because i know i dont have to have a shitty sounding scooter.

Yea we pretty much always make people's/our scoots dialed. But when little kids want it to be dialed its kind of annoying how much of a deal they make if there is the tiniest bit of rattle

I prefer a dialled scooter but FrenchID brakes are probably almost impossible to dial and I really don't care - everything works fine, tightened to the max, smooth and fast so I love it.

Everythings gotta be tight compression wise but if my brake or wheels wobble a bit i usually dont mind much. I dont own any tools so whenever I am with other scooter riders I tighten things up. I go through phases though. Sometimes I NEED my scooter to be perfcet sometimes i dont mind.

Headsets, bearings, and brakes are the most important parts when it comes to dialing your baby.

i have everything dialed except my brake, and thats close enough. if you scooter doesnt flex when you land your good in my opinion. but if i had the parts to dial it i would.

As long as the headset wobble is minimal, then I am happy. My scooter is horendously slow at the moment though, which is really pissing me off.

damn lol i prefer everything loose and never tighten anything on my scooter once i put it toghether the first time, you can here it in my edits and, in 7 months i never tightened anything one lol
but if you overdial your scooter then it can go slow and spin slow and i like my shit to spin fast and go fast
