so i ordered my reinforced bullet 2 and i was just curious what is already reinforced on it and what needs to to be reinforced. I do plan on buying a locking system that they sell. And i also plan to buy some dropout reinforcement stuff.
Anything else?

I'm quite sure every single thing is reinforced. Nothing is left weak and thats why its expensive. No need to reinforce anything. Hooray.

Micro Bullet, Deck Reinforcement (2.5cm, 2mm) Double locking system complet, 2x 100mm metal core wheels, reinforced fork, reinforced folding system thing, tightening on the tube
yup, reinforced fork. Emailed Eric and he said the only thing you should optionally get is handlebars and a new t tube

i worked my ass selling pop at football games (nebraskans= football addicted hicks) off to work up about 400 bucks just to spend on whatever the hell i want. This summer theres this job where you break corn off of the stocks in fields. Hard work and hot but you make about 700 bucks.

So? Instead of bumping pointlessly, he asked a question.
Smarter would have been to answer him or refer to a sticky thread if possible.

No.

They are amazing at the beginning but they will turn into pile of shit pretty soon.

My and Erti's experience shows that buying reinforced Bullets means a lot more work and money to spend them even AFTER you've bought them because they need a lot of modding if you want them to keep them solid.

Experience shows that:
+ Razors are waaaay easier to modify;
+ Razors are cheaper
+ Micro brakes snap in 20 minutes and Micro decks don't like razor brakes.
+ Micro headtubes are sooo weak that they will ovalize even with deep-stacked headsets
+ Micro neckplate system is the weakest spot on the scooter - even two pairs of plates will crack eventually.

If 2 pairs will start to crack in 7 months, then 3-4 plates will only extend the life time like... what... 1-2 months? Plates aren't the only issue on Micros.

My 2 pairs started to crack at the same time when my whole reinforced deck started to BEND too.

When i removed my things from micro deck back to a razor one after 8 months, i could remove my headset by hand. Not just a regular headset - those cups have 1 inch insertions. And Micro headtubes ovalize even with those kinds of headsets.

when i saw my own thread i was like wtf?! but anyway, i agree with madis and such the bullet was probably the best thing i ever rode for the first month but then it turned into a pile of shit.

edit: my sig says all
