[poll] bolting a folding mech?

[ben90245]

ok, i am new to scootin( like 2 weeks,) and i was wonderin how you bolt your folding mech(dont send me Brian Bostons video, i already saw it and it didnt, realy, help...) so can someone explane how i bolt an A scooter? im getin a pro, but i want to try it on a A scooter. please can someone just write about a paragraph or less explaining it to me? Not only me, but other people who look at this thread that are thinking the same thing. sorry for my very long post if anyone gets mad...

Pop out the stock bolts and put your own bolts in there, its self explanatory. If you can't understand it from my video, i don't think anyone is going to be able to explain it better in text.

well, can you do it to anyscooter? what if you mess up

 

[Brian Boston]

It doesn't really work right on new a's, you have to drill a hole behind the headtube for it to work right (atleast thats the only way i've got it to work). You can't really mess up, theres nothing to break, the only thing you can mess up is getting the wrong bolt sizes.

you don't need to drill a hole to lock a new a...

yeah, just pop off the little black rings, pull out the bolts, then get some new bolts and just put em through. you'll want to have some kind of spacers, and washers.

I dunno, i've put bolts threw the 2 holes on a new a and its still moved, i might have needed a bigger bolt for the top hole though

What length bolts do you need and how wide do they need to be?

Check the scooter modding super thread in the scooters section

oh, well yeah, it'll move a little.

all you have to do is tighten the bolts down a sh!t load on the new a and it wont move

the head tube wall thickness is too thin, the bolt makes a dent into it when you land a jump or something.

I just put B mechs on the new A's if im desperate...
