Wobbly Headset/Bars

[zfmjets]

Ok so I have a stock Razor Pro xx because i'm new to scootering and my headset is really wobbly so can i just get a new headset and there will be no problem or do i have to get new forks too? I could just switch to threadless forks and headset, and get a compression system, but i'm really tight on money so it might be kinda hard.

Yes the switch to threadless can be expensive, but its pretty much essential. I personally favor SCS but if your tight on cash just use ICS. That way, when you get a new headset all you will need is a threadless fork and a star nut in your bars. What headset are you going to get?

The normal razor headset doesnt allow you to tighten it all the way without it affecting the spin. If you get one of these http://www.sgscooters.com/ENVY-HEADSET-BLACK.html , you put it on and can tighten the locknut down on the headset allowing a nice smooth spin with no bar wobble, and there is plenty of colors

Probably an Envy like Hamlet suggested

Nice. But yeah what ryan said is right as well. You can use these headsets with your threaded forks too

Stepping up to a real headset makes a world of difference

Is the FSA Hammer any good?

Probably not. Just save your money and get a envy/cane creek headset.

They're not that good but they work without wobbling, if you're going to get an unsealed headset get the fsa pig.... It's pretty cheap and it's a good beginner headset. It was my first thread less headset and it worked well.

Ill just save up for the Envy, thanks for the help everybody

Try a bike shop to tighten up the razor headset.

Without the thin headset wrenches it is damn near impossible to tighten it up.

As mentioned there is only so much you can do but in the mean time try the Bike shop.

Def switch to a threadless system when you can afford it Its essential to scooter riders.. you very very very very rarley see a GOOD scooter rider with a threaded system.
