I guess you could but thats not really the point of HIC/SCS. And either way if you did, you would need the locknut anyways.

yes but don't run it on SCS too long, it ruins the clamp. The threads kind of mold into the scs and then it doesn't work as well with threadless.

what about hic/ics?
those would work, not scs. id just use the locknut though... much less expensive and if you have threaded forks its more of a hassle but not really worth buying a new compression system.


Is ics as badd as some people say it is? Answer please
i can dial my ics better than my friend can dial his scs. 2 starnuts help, also how tight you tighten your clamp on the bars helps it stay dialed for longer. finally, locktite is a must have for any compression system if you want it to stay tight for awhile.

if you get a lucky fork, get a lucky compression. if you get a proto fork, get a proto compression. sometimes if you mix companies things dont work like they should. as for fork recommendations, search around and get what you like.

thnx heeps i finally worked out how it works, just double checking, scs works similar to hic but the starnut replaces the hole at the bottom of the forks and the clamp replaces the shim pls tell me thats right

also now i want scs will it work with threaded forks? i dont see how it wouldnt thanx
 
so if you want 2 starnuts for my fuzion ics then where do i put both. two in the bars or one in the fork and one in the bars? also where do you put the locktite

I think you would want both in bars no? I may be wrong. Im only saying that because I don't know of any ICS bolt that has threads long enough.

And im pretty sure you put the locktite on in the starnut threads.
