Scooter Parts

[Mitten404]

since i joined this forum, im lookin at all these things u can do to customize ur scooter and wat not... But as i thot about it more, whats the point of all those things. the 2 i really wanna know how they benefit u are the handlebars (not grips) and forks. why buy new ones instead of stock? what makes them better to get custom ones and what not?

o.k. so they're stronger, heavier (better for some people), and one piece bars get rid of the ridiculous clamp on the stock bars that people are forever bashing their knees on. stck forks bend and break like a hot knife through butter. i dont even ride hard and have almost bent my forks. i know, cuz it looks like theres a tiny tiny curve in them, almost unnoticable.

really, its just that they are a LOT stronger

Not true, good riders can ride smooth and not break parts as well.

im talking about stock parts...

If you don't know why stock parts suck then you don't need aftermarket parts. Wait until you start riding hard and breaking parts and then you will understand.

I don't know if this is true, but could the way you land your tricks affect how often you break parts?

 

[Racer52]

^^^Ya like if you land way leaned over your wheel might dehub or fork legs may bend

 

[demo]

or if you land hard on the back allot, and not square on the scooter .. then you might have a broken deck or a flat spot... try o be smooth

ive only broken the weak foldys on a models and a couple wheels but yeah i homemade my own bars to hold strong and bolted my foldy but thats all my mods for now. buff bars look gnar and super strong when i get some money i might get em
