Fork and Compression Question.

[Randall Dalal]

I know i probably sound like a complete moron right now but, heres the deal.
I just bought new slayers, i rode them for a month and now they are getting a bit short because i grew a couple inches (Growth spurt). I really dont want to buy new bars right now, mine are perfect except for the height. Anyway, i have been wanting to go thread-less and compression for a while now and i know that brass knuckles add two inches to your bar height so that would solve that problem. Except i only have enough money for the brass knuckles and the thread-less headset, so my question to you guys is, Is there anyway to get threads off of a threaded fork to make it thread-less? Or, Can you ride compression and thread-less headset with a threaded fork?

just get new bars

 

[Michael Rankin]

that description was quite contradictory( if thats even a real word)

 

[Randall Dalal]

just get new bars

If i got higher bars i wouldn't be able to get the compression then because it adds two inches, so what i am riding now is what i would need if i wanted to get the compression which i do. Wonderful brain you got yourself there.

How? And yes it is a word.

woah woah woah. back the fuck up. he gave you a suggestion. so why are you dissing him.

lol mike<3

and yea ur calling me stupid when ur asking if u can use compression with a threaded fork hahahaha

 

[Randall Dalal]

woah woah woah. back the fuck up. he gave you a suggestion. so why are you dissing him.

Because i already explained i don't want to get new bars because i want the freaking compression, i was just explaining the other reason why i would want it and how it would help. I can't get new bars and the compression because then it will be 24.5 high and im not a freaking giant.

I'm asking because i don't know. I don't have any information. The information you needed was right in front of you dumbass.

sounds like a personal problem to me

What?! This is a website about scooting correct? How in the world is that a personal problem, i need information, why would you come here just to give me suggestions that contradict what i said i want to do and then call me stupid. Either help me or don't no reason to be an asshole.

 

[Michael Rankin]

you do realize that you are the asshole because you called kelly an idiot because he gave you a better solution to your problem instead of you using compression on a threaded fork

 

[Randall Dalal]

I said is there a way of getting the threads off, buy grinding it or something. And it's not a solution to my problem because i also want to get a compression system because it works a hell of a lot better.

 

[Kay Are]

FOR USE WITH 1-1/8" THREADLESS FORKS ONLY!

maybe u should look in the store next time

you are really considering grinding off the threads? thats quite a brain you got there.

 

[Randall Dalal]

What would be wrong with doing that?

 

[Michael Rankin]

What would be wrong with doing that?

that is the dumbest question i have ever read.

 

[Randall Dalal]

that is the dumbest question i have ever read.

If it's that dumb just tell me what would be wrong with doing that. I'm really not trying to make enemies here guys, i know i sounded like a dick but it's cause i called all my friends and asked them and they all hung up because they said it was too stupid. I really just want to know if could be done, how, and why shouldn't it if you can't.
