You really can't say that threadless isn't the future, because it is. Look at bike in general, 99% of all high end bikes are threadless, and I'm talking about bmx, road, mountain, and everything in between. Years ago they were all threaded, but that changed. The same will happen with scooters.

Bleh. It probably is the future, but not the best future imo.

a chunky ass thick threaded fork would be supreme in my mind.
less work involved

Sorry but anyone who denies the clear advantages of threadless forks (price aside) just doesn't know what they are talking about, besides, once it becomes the standard and scooters come with it stock it won't be any more expensive than what you are riding already. Threadless IS the future and it is already here.

They will take as long as Andrew wants them to be shipped out.

Geez, people need to learn how to be patient. Andrew is not a machine. its takes time to build parts and stuff. So just wait

It might be future for you, but for me it's the present.

And WEE does not sell threaded forks for that matter.



Another thing regarding Proto products for those who live outside the States,
WEE is going to stock Proto stuff in a week or two:
- metalcores (brown and white)
- threadless 110mm Striker forks
- colored SCS Knuckle kits
- ICS kits (Striker-compatible).
Monthly free powder coating colors will apply on forks aswell.

Yeah Im with madis. Threadless is pretty much standard already. Its already standard with almost everything else that uses a headset.

I think integrated headtubes will also help push threadless because most kids have trouble intalling a regular headset. Integrated is so easy anyone can install it with minimal use of tools.
Plus once integrated is widely used then everyone will havee to be riding threadless.

When I get a razor the first thing I do is get one peice bars and a threadless headset.
Then a fork as soon as I can after that. This stuff is seriously the most important sh!t on a scooter imo. Oh then good metal cores after that.
