I have a maddgear deck and it doesn't seem heavy whatsoever, but if i were you I'd look towards buying a district or a TSI. I suppose if really depends on what you're going to do, from what I've heard districts are good for grinds and are really light whereas TSIs are strong and good all rounders. That's just what I've heard. I've never actually ridden one of them. ;)
or there's always wait for addict...

Alright, so turns out I don't have 600 to throw away.

If I was to get something within the 300 range.... what would it be?

Okay, so how would I get these parts and put them together? Can I use a skate tool?

Also, what does "dialed" mean? Sorry, kind of dumb.

Thanks for all the responses, guys :)

-If you need to, don't forget to put a starnut in your forks (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhSBkddxOdY)
-Put the crown race on the forks
-For the headset, use a piece of wood or something, put it on top of the headtube and start hammering.
-Once you've put the headset on both sides of the headtube, slide the forks through.
-If you get SCS, put the clamp onto the forks, put the compression cap on and put the screw through the compression cap into the forks
-If you get HIC I'm not that sure what u do
-Put ur bars through the clamp then screw it all up
-Put grips on ur bars (I put zip ties on the inside of the grips then slide them on my bars and once they're in the right place, take the zip ties off)
-Also, don't forget to put on bar ends
-Put the wheels on your fork and on the end of your deck (dont forget bearings and spacers)
-Put grip tape on your deck

You can do all of this with a hammer, a flat piece of wood and one or two (it's easier with two) 5 millimeter allen keys

Dialed means that if you drop your scooter (drop test) it vibrates and you can hear the vibration; it also means nothing is rattling on your scooter and also that everything is tightened and works together really well

You're Welcome :)

why would a beginner want to ride a tsi? a district or envy aos v2 or something a bit lighter and beginner friendly would be better, also tsi bars are heinous imo, choose something that you like the look of lol a nitro extreme is a great scooter for a begginer although the deck might be a bit heavy for some people

get an addict or district v2i, rad crow bars in hic, tilt forks, proto sliders, proto half knuckle, any flexy brake and your choice of grips and grip tape (all odi grips are good)

this is a super light strong set up that would be easy to dial.

but if $300 is you price range, honestly i'd get the new razor ultra pro (xx or something like that) a new headset grips and wheels and a flexy brake, this will last you a long time and be light AF
