[Scooter Mcgee]

^^pretty cool give me some of that grip and whats actions seems like a madd/blade and wouldnt you put the yak on the back

New one piece fifteen inch bars

the start of my truck scooter (tips on front truck)(timur)

and my broken wheel

nice bars are they like copper lol
i wouldnt be stuffed making a truck scoot but theres a vid in mod thread

 

[Exploited21]

my scooter isnt very modded yet but so far i have
deck: old a with the triangle sides underneath
stem: stock a with filing and sanding inside so there is no threads
clamps: two mismatched ones
wheels: wheels called TURS off a next scooter 83a 100m
TTube: stock bolted
Bars: stock clicked in shit soon to be welded or rads dont know yet
Forks: reinforced using t tube and jb weld, fork is steel and the circle thing that sticks out of the fork is cut off and filed smoother, i have a compression device jb welded inside the stem tube but i couldnt find a metric bolt long enough to connect to the inside of the fork to make a compression device like the SR forks so i just threaded the headset tight and them put the stem tube over and clamped it
headset: two haro mega cups without a bottom headset race just straight to the fork, works well so far
brake: stock
grips: primo newer style chad degroots with plastic barends
mech: its stock but it is locked very well and will soon be welded probaly
my set up is pretty much rock solid besides the common flexes of a normal scooter deck that hasnt been braced i have no cracks yet but i havent been riding this for very long and i am not insane, i can do feebles tailwhips 360s etc but i dont get insane airing out 10 feet and doing 7 stairs

um about the yak i bought the last one in stall then when they came back it was only 2 weeks to x-mas so i waited n other reason is everyone in penrith gets there yaks from dr danger for $15 each n me uncles work is getting them in just after x-mas so his gonna get me 2 sets for like $35

n the actions r same as madd/blade

 

[Scooter Mcgee]

wow this thread is going off how are the wheels

i just realised 2 cracks in my head tube on each side like 2cm long

 

[Exploited21]

are u talking about the wheels on my scoot? i dont know how they are yet i was riding earlier and they seem pretty sweet, i want o buy some micro metal cores, i weigh like 200 pounds and ride bmx also so im trying to get the scooter to be insanely tought but yeah i doubt i will be able to i also want to try wider bars

 

[scooter-jake]

ur scooter looks pretty good

just maybe fix up ur griptape a lil it looks a bit messy but hay i cant talk look at how bent my bars r

 

[AX3D]

[AX3D]

My scoot

Anyway, reason why I'm posting this is because I want to paint my bars (zebra dots, stripes etc.) and I was wondering what your suggestions would be?
(And yeah I have spear bars in case I fuck up :-] )

 

[Scooter Mcgee]

i suggest get it powder coated they can do any design.. what front wheel is that

Dunno what the fount wheel is, its shit I broke my first fount wheel the other day (a YAK ) And my back wheel is already cracking, I gave my (good) spear wheels away and Skatebiz is out of YAKs so I'm fucked.
Anyway, I'm not geting it powder coated, I heard it costs a lot or some shit like that....

Edit: I was thinking a Gloss Black to go with grips, or maybe even a red, to go with YAK's...

Edit2: I did a quick photo shopping and it looks TERRIBLE!!! Haha I'm so not painting it

 

[Scooter Mcgee]

it doesnt cost much at all
i want matt black with like red headtube or someting

I thought Tyler Boner or KC looked into it and thought it was too much or something... I can't remember who said so...

 

[Exploited21]

powder coating is probaly like 70 dollars and sandblasting the aluminum to get it ready would be like 40 so yeah, some company should start making anodized scooter parts

 

[AX3D]

40+70= 110... I think haha its 1:53am and I'm tired...
Anyway
Thats too much for me... I'm trying to get a little shop thing going selling Madd/Blade breaks and shit... So I need a bit of cash atm, which I'm quite low on.
