Too heavy custom bars :<

[chester]

Well, i made custom onepieces and they're way too heavy(about 2kg, which is 70oz.). I built it with super thick tubes(steer tube has 2,6mm(0.102") thick wall and crossbar is the same thickness) I couldn't get any cr-mo tubes or any with less thick wall which would fit the 1-1/8 fork. I was thinking of drilling holes in the steer tube to reduce the wieght. what drill's diameter to use and what distance between the holes should be? Soryy for my bad English but i think you will understand me

Don't drill holes in them, that will weaken them, just make new ones.

I haven't got access to other tubes which would fit fork, it was the only one that fitted, so i have to do sth to lighten them

Please don't drill holes. Wait until you access to more tubes.

Those days will never come :<. That's Poland.

Wee Scooters ships to poland.
Either get bars there, ride stock or ask Pete Pachota he's from Cracow, Poland...

 

[chrismassey15]

u could get away with a couple of hole in the crossbar 6mm but not in the downtube

 

[Kodye Gregory]

do not drill holes

 

[molewood4]

just use them?

 

[chester]

I know wee scooters ship to Poland but Polish Zloty(PLN) sux and buying in euros in Poland is misunderstanding.

Don't drill the bars. Just ride your bars (good exercise) until the currency gets better or until you save more money.

 

[asianpuff16]

just ride it
so when you get lighter bars you will get used to it

 

[JamieBowe]

Don't bitch about it. Mine are around 2kg, at the start i didn't like them but now they are all i can ride with.

 

[Lil Steve]

Ride them until they break.

 

[idk47]

Sell them, and get money to buy Wee's.

 

[Roycee]
