My deck won't whip when I go out to ride in winter

[mattride5]

Sometimes we'll get a decent enough day that I can go out and ride during winter, but theres a problem. I try to tailwhip just as I normally would but when the deck whips it only goes around half way. Could anyone tell me what the problem is, if there is one.

By the way I ride a Pro Model

search theres already threads on this

its probably too tight, grease in it you should remove clean and oil, or if its because of a tight spot then something is crooked

Ive had it also, its the bearing cups. They get kinda stuffed up in the winter. Lube em up real good http://www.whipscooters.com/headset.html before you go riding will help a bit.

o if its just in the winter then its cause the grease thickens, just swap it out with oil like in the whip tut posted above

Make sure your Razor stock headset's top cap doesn't look like this crooked -> http://laheidee.ee/pildid/Egoni ProRazor/IMG_0017.JPG
Because if it does, it's a real sad defect.

it could also be that your wheel is to big

yes, its deffinantly your headset cups. Sometimes when i leave my scooter in my cold garage the same thing happens. Two choices, lube em' up real good, or just stande doing the tailwhip movement with your hands until it warms up and fixs itself. also, keep your scooter inside!

Just don't ride in the winter, period. Unless of course you have an indoor nearby..

When i lived in china, all the stuff that the Chinese people manufactured to sell in China itself,
was alot lower quality than the stuff we get thats made there.

You'd better be joking.

I hope you realize what happens when you go from really hot, to really cold (and visa versa) really fast...

I think its the bearing cups.
It whips just fine when its warm.

 

[mattride5]

I used to have a micro and it never did that

 

[mattride5]

I don't. it's just when I go out to ride it whips fine for a few minutes then it just stops.
