Lighten up a MGP

[scootrider]

rep for help

 

[Billie Rainbow]

not really a proven good way, just man up

 

[Zaηe]

youll get used to it.

 

[Cookie]

just get rid of deck, bars, forks and wheels, that should fix it.

 

[Steezeman]

Get lighter parts, obviously.

 

[DMazz]

get lucky forks, skyhigh bars, and eagle wheels..... light as shit lmao

 

[Krispy]

why lighten? its not that heavy.

 

[JamieBowe]

Light decks are gay to ride.
But if your really keen and have time on your hands than you can do this.
Drill holes in the deck where there is least stress.

 

[Justin Jenco]

way to take 90 percent of your deck life away.... what a waste.

 

[Hep Greg]

i dunno, those are pretty well placed holes.

they're pretty evenly placed too, so i dont think it'll really effect the strength as bad as you think.

Sick way to take credit for the MGP Jamie.

And yeah, it works quite well actually. Billie Rainbow did it so it has to be good.

 

[Billie Rainbow]

haha yeah i had a think about it before i just drilled it left and right, also ive given bike riders a go and its fine still no signs of bending but it not a huge difference, only changes whip minutely and my scoot still weighs 4.2kg

How the fuck in anyway did i try and take credit Jarrad.

 

[JDBen]

[Michael Rankin]

[dezbert]

That's cool as bricks

 

[Billie Rainbow]

deck on its own is 3 pounds 2-3ounces

[Michael Rankin]
