One Piece Handlebars Help!

[peoplemage]

Hi guys,

I bought some new 1 piece handle bars off ebay.
I noticed that my old bars had thread the the bottom of them so it screwed onto the headtube thing. The thing that the forks are connected to and it slides through the headtube of the scooter.

Anyway, my new bars don't have thread in there...
How do I get these bars on? What do I need to do this.

I'm stupid haha,.



Thanks guys.

just slide them on

 

[zolof]

you just push them on

 

[peoplemage]

Are they meant to be hard to push on or should they just 'fall' on.

 

[zolof]

just put them on and tighten your clamp

 

[peoplemage]

Yes but its really hard to put them on, will they eventually go on?

 

[zolof]

yeah
try pushing down and twisting

 

[peoplemage]

Alright ill give it a go

 

[lukecdoran]

should or else they might be a bit dodgy just try and get them down and tighten the s&@it out of them =D

 

[peoplemage]

What bars did u get?
If it is really hard to get ur bars on, lube then lean on them.
If leaning doesn't work then hit the top with a rubber mallet.
To take ur fork off, unscrew both nuts (it might be hard and you might need a big shifter)slide ur fork out, you might need to take ur bearing race off depends on what ur doing (changing forks)
