i remember jordan jasa(i think it was him) saying that he has a tank like scooter for street, and a super light scooter for flat/tech, like a new a with a b folding mech or something, stock bars bolted etc.

No point of having 2 scooters.
i use the same scooter for
-park
-tech
-street
And use your own preference don't ask people
how to build YOUR scooter.

I'm not asking anyone to do anything for me. I'm asking for suggestions, and if parts are durable, which are lightest, what plastic cored wheels are good, etcc

Old A deck
or New A deck with b foldy
stock bars with bolted crossbar
you dont need fast wheels so stock wheels should do the trick

haha i had a gnar flat/tech/flatland scooter at one point, i need to put it back together.

it had:
-dual old yak 125s, the back one was hot glued
-massive bearing pegs with grade 8 bolts
-reinforced stock fork
-bolted stock bars
-90Ã?Å¡ headtube angle and reinforced foldy
- old b deck
- some other shit i'm forgetting
and a wheelie bar, which is actually fun to screw around with flatland.

stop making "what parts/scooter should i get" threads, if you dont know you probably dont need it. design your own scooter.

Pro model.
Bolted.

Oh wait.
You don't need anything else.
You're riding flat for fuck sake! Yes, parts will break, but how often? Virtually never.

New a deck, b foldy. you might have to look hard for a new a that fits the b foldy though. if you can't find one, find an old a.
new a headtube, or pro, doesn't matter.
stock headset
fork- personally i like a bit of a heavier fork, soo try inward .083's, or find an SR threaded and reinforce it.
stock bars, bolt everything. if you want something cleaner go for french ID's, or wait for alu inwards.
XT metalcore front wheel, eagle metalcore back wheel, both 100mm. if that can't happen, just try to find any wheel with a ton of urethane for the front, so it lasts longer if you do a lot of sliders. i never break back wheels though, soo idk what best for that.
Pro brake.
New a abec 5 bearings, broken in and cleaned/lubed with 3 in 1 oil will be perfect.
grips- animal edwins, once they're worn in they are amazing.
