Listen closely: DON'T GET THE MICRO. Order a Razor Pro Model and Mod the shit out of it.
1: First of all, The welds on the front of the scooter on the folding mechanism are only the two ends of each plate. Get them welded from end to end on the outer sides.
2: Go to either a metal shop or online and Purchase Solid rectangle bars T-6061 (Rise: 0.70" ,Width:1/2", Length: 20.0 "); For this Mod, you will need to take out the steel reinforcement plate from inside the front of the scooter (dont worry, the T-6 aluminum will give it more strength than the steel because of the way it will be mounted). Next take the back wheel and foot brake off. mark the reinforcement for the holes you will drill, double check, then drill the holes for the rear axle, brake pin, side wall reinforcement and mechanism mounting bolts under the deck (WARNING: YOU WILL NEED LONGER BOLTS FOR ALL 8 OF THE BOLT HOLES IN THE FRONT END OF THE PRO MODEL FOR THIS MOD).
3: Micro Metal cores w/ Bones Labrynth bearings
4: Titanium bolts to lock the mech
5: FSA downhill sealed Headset
6: Rad Bars (another upside to these bars: their made in................America..FUCK YEAH!!!
7: SR Forks
8: Edwin Grips
9: Blade brake
10: Mob Grip tape
11: Powell thin ribs (rails), but more than likely just make a grind plate of some kind, so you won't have to put so many holes in the deck.
12: You should know this set-up will only weigh 6 and a half pounds, cost $445 and last about 5 years of street riding
13: Don't let anyone ride your scooter: THEY WILL STEAL IT!!!

hmm I would do that without the reinforcement at first. I don't weigh enough to break a scooter with the trick and terrain I ride haha. It would probably cost too much for me anyhow, and most people can't get RAD bars. But I can dream :)

no but maybe something like that.......

this spring im hoping to make the new "frame" (one piece headtube/deck) and ride it for a while for prototype and by summerish i hope to make a few more to sell to some riders i respect for them to prototype and find ALL of the flaws before they go on sale for everyone and ill even add reinforcements for people the need them, while making my own design for a fork as well and if all goes well by the end of the year if it works out well i will make plenty of "frame" and fork combos to sell.



and i reeeeally hope this works out and isnt just a dream.
