From my knowledge the sig has the same size headset as the normal MGP...

But the Nitro has a normal sized one...

^^^ yer they do coz most bars have the same diameter wer they slide onto the forks so im gueesing that ur ultra bars will fit but they will be a tad shorter because of the headtube.

but if you buy nitro your not buying nything for a hell of a long time
the parts are that good that you will sell your old shit

???

can you confirm the head tube angle

can you give size of the actual head tube, Means= MGP are very small, still new production small, the new sig models releasing soon also have small but indeed forged, ok so the nitro its rumor it has like the normal bigger madd headtube ??? correct???

what size, cause the madd gear scooters the normal Old A style models have a 3in tall tube for the headset, when Razors & pritty much to date all aftermarket decks got 3 1/2 in tall, it be nice see the nitros with a 3 & a half inch tall headtube

haha i wouldnt do that, i think they come out very close to each other. and headtube is original madd/blade headtube but they fit all other forks. and besides it will make forks longer thus making the bars more resistant to breaking, and the fact the forks are 1 piece forged threadless ones so got nothing to worry about. also this scooter is going to be good, i triple checked it in melbourne and there is no more improvements needed from now on, its as good as it gets.

headtube angle is tiniest bit more than mgp.

Sickk...

I was asking cause i knew the sig and nitro are coming out about the same time...

And my Razor Pro is about the snap in half, and i want to have a scooter! But dont want to buy a new one, then the nitro comes out...

Thanks
 
No. The sig series is a middle range MaddGear scooter, MGP Is bottom of range, and nitro is top...

It IS still coming out... Dont worry, the team are just testing it, should be here March some time... :D:D:D

i'm pissed that madd is only making scoots in aus, just look above^
the MGP is the bottom range scooter. i don't know about you guys but the mpg looks pretty beast in itself. Plus you guys can pick up an MGP at Kmart! Over in the US razor stopped making Rups after the first wave. So i guess i'm trying to say count your blessings you spoiled children you.

sounds good, but still head tube should be 3 1/2 in in my opion, making it the same as there other range of scooters, makes it harder for other forks & compression to fit the scooter, yeah the fork tube runs higher into the bars, this really doesnt make them stronger, but makes a weak spot in another place above where it used to be

things like SCS type compressions on a MGN would mean rider has to cut sum of there fork off, or run head set spacers, this is why i was asking, i still think u should metion it to mike, as if they havnt ordered the extrusion or materials to start it wouldnt be too late
