It defeats the purpose dickhead.

the purpose of scs is to be a better more reliable method of compressing your headset the then standard threaded lock ring and it still does that just fine. sure the fork isnt exactly designed for that and the threads weaken it a bit but it doesnt effect how well the scs works at all...

if you use scs with a threaded fork, you will ruin the scs.

It's designed as a compression system. A compression system is designed for threadless forks. He still has the locknut on there regardless so the scs is doing nothing but destroying the threads and making his bars taller.

no actually you dont, i ran scs with my ultra pro fork till i got a stricker and both the ultra pork fork and scs were just fine. dont post saying something unless you have actual experience to back it up...

he doesnt need to have a locknut on there if he puts a starnut in the fork and then actually takes advantage of the compression aspect of the scs but there is still nothing wrong with just using it as a clamp if you dont want to put slits in your bars. also the compression system is designed so that you can use it with threadless forks (which are better for numerous reasons) however it is not limited to being used with onely them...

dont know what everyone is hating about, threaded forks work just fine with scs...

they actually don't, they destroy your SCS. The SCS is made out of aluminum, and the fork is made out of (idk?) but its a harder metal. And what happens when you clamp something soft to something hard? If molds to the shape of the hard piece. Which means you will have threads on your SCS.

Well I think the forks are aluminum but yeah it fucks it up.

if you dont believe me go and try this with your scs/threaded fork. back when i was running that set up i had my scs done up extremely tight and there was not even a mark on the inside of my scs...

impossible because i got an scs that someone rode on threaded forks and its been on threadless forks for like a year and it still has marks from the threads.
