foldy mod

[Dylan Kasson]

ok i just thought of this mod last night if you take the bigger bolt out of your foldy and replace it with a small bolt and then place the big bolt where the small bolt was the handlebars go farther forward so it way easier for nose manuals and manuals i saw kc do this but instead of just switching around the bolts he milled his holes down heres a pic

...its just a locked folding mech, you probably were doing it wrong before, the bars are supposed to go as far as you can get them so the deck is flat with the ground.

 

[Dylan Kasson]

no i was doing it right notice how the small bolt is where the big bolt usually goes

 

[Brian Boston]

Everyone uses different size bolts though. I just use 2 razor b axles and a long ass bolt on the bottom hole.

 

[DoubleYou]

yeah i use 2 axels and a random bolt. Scoots' blots look more or less the same size.

yep looks normal to me

Correction Brian Boston, Parallel with the ground. So the deck is parallel with the ground.

I dont like my bars like straight up, I like them a little leaned back

i like them as far forward as they go.. which is a little leaned back....

 

[Miles Quirk]

the headcup thing is suppose to be flush with the front of the folding mech anyway you loser.

 

[VillageFox]

like 5 kids that are getting into scootering are giving me 5 bucks each to lock there mech. so 5 x $5 = $25,haha

Suckers!!!.......

 

[VillageFox]

not that much, because if they did it there selfs they would know what size bolts and stuff, and if they bought new axels thats like 3 bucks right there.... so i get bolts for free so its good deal for both of us kinda.....

last night i built an old a, and when i put the headset in the mech there was so much space between the mech and the headset. and its the same headset that came with it. i took it for a test ride, doubled flat and the bottem hit. and i did tighten the bolt alll the way.and when i take sharp enough turns...im going to try and cut out thin plates of metal the spape of the mech and fill in the space....anyone know why the hell theres so much space. if it makes a difference i took off the front piece thats ment to make your scooter not shake, which shouldnt matter. i did it before

sry bout the dub post
