ok nvm what this thread was about guys. whats really important right now is my inward zero offset fork is breaking like i was fixing my headset and i was taking my bearing race off, an the race part on the fork it was lie lifting up alittle bit when i was taking off the bearing race with a screw driver, ive only had this fork for a few months and i dont ride hard at all, i was wondering i could get it replaced or something, or what i should do, cuz i was told inwards dont break very easily an i ride flat and mines breaking? somethings not right

i dont get it at all like WTF lol, could i take a stock razor headset cup and put my canecreek bearings in it? or like does anyone have any ideas i want my s3 headset still and i want it to feel exactly the same

 

[Michael Rankin]

I was thinking, and most bike headsets are designed with larger lower bearings and smaller top bearings due to the added leverage/stress of the forks being longer on a bike. However with scooters, there is actually more stress on the top bearings of our scooter headsets do to the taller bars and shorter forks. Maybe scooter companies should consider this seeing there are now scooter specific headsets coming to the market.

My S-3 did this, and so did another persons I know. Basicly S-3's are garbage.

This is why you get Cane Creek S-1s. They're the same as S-3s, but made of steel.

OMFG great ok so now i put a stock botto cup on with stock bearings and everything and when i put my scs on an stuff, my bars and shit move up and down like wobble and idk why can someone tell me wtf im doing wrong?

 

[Michael Rankin]

did you put the stock bearing race on?

 

[Lamont Tyre]

noo do i have to use that race?

 

[Michael Rankin]

yeah. the s3 uses a sealed bearing, and the stock use an unsealed bearing. each bearing race is specific for its headset. you hay have damaged your stock bearing now
