Question,what haooens when you dtrip the threads on ics? cant get my fucking bars off

 

[humpurple kushiones]

I think hic is the most dialled compression...

deff not. people think it is because its super easy to just tighten it and put the bars on, but the slit is a weak point, and many bars have broken there. I have yet to see broken bars that were on an scs.the people that have problems with the scs just need to learn how to use it, ive never had a problem with my scs and ive been riding it for like a year, it has never got loose. i think hic is just taking a step backward, buff figured out a way to compress the headset perfectly and eliminate the need for a weak slit, idk why everyone isnt using it.
and i was not the biggest fan of the scs until i actually got one.

HIC eliminates a giant metal thing from looking weird. SCS has to use an SCS so it looks kinda weird in some cases. HIC just looks like stock compression.

Obtw. ICS <3

thats why other companys are making scs's. there should be plenty of designs to choose from in the future so it wont look weird to you. scs eliminates a weak slit which is more important than looks. also stock compression would be threaded? hic doesnt look threaded at all idk where you are trying to get with that.
and lol ics. if it works for you great, but most people find it annoying.

ok i'm slightly confused and retarted about ics... it works kinda like a reverse bolt?? do the bars need threads??

 

[Mikey G]

No, instead of using a starnut in your fork, you put it in your bars, and tighten it from the fork. Anthony, I mean it doesn't have a like a quad clamp lookign thing on it. If it looks good, and is easy to use, then it's going to get used.

Does anyone know of any other way to get a stuck bolt out of an scs other than what was mentioned in this thread?

 

[Tupsu]

Is it possible to use a MGP batwing HIC bar with threaded fork?

 

[Jb12199]

probs not

 

[Tupsu]

I think it is... It isn't probably possible to use it as compression.

 

[Jb12199]

well if u already knew why did u ask

 

[louis.e]

With the star nut that goes on the forks, how does the star nut stay in place with the amount of pull you are putting on the bars ??

i dont know, phisics?

 

[instinctscooter]

so basicly hic is weaker than SCS but costs less and does ghetto scs need slits or none

 

[kyle likes to scoot]

right im just wondering if you could use scs or hic with a threaded fork? i just HATE the locknut, sorry if this has been posted, couldnt find it
