what don't you understand about them being shit? Especially don't get wheels from a shitty company and don't get an scs either. If you want a cheap scs, get vertx

erm the wheels are good, i have ridden them. i dont know about the bars and forks but the wheels are probably the best part on the scooter. before nick silverman got the same wheels from sz and said they were faster than sliders. also im getting them cheap and they are 110mm.

for the scs it cant be that bad if i am careful and if it stripps i wont have lost that much. its also higher than most so either adding more height to my scooter which i want or making the bars stronger as there is less open bar area to bend. also i love in the uk (well sweden but my dad goes back and forth and can get them from britain as sweden is even worse for pricing) where vertx costs a lot more like 1.8x the cost and i havent found a link for the scs

I don't know where all places ship to the UK, but apex is based there and make decent compression systems if I understand correctly (other than being kinda ugly.) And what do you mean the wheels are good? You realize any wheel that isn't chunked to shit feels nice to ride? Hell, a brand new stock razor pro wheel feels awesome when you start riding it. Just trying to help you out dude.

i didnt ride the wheel when it was new, i now am fairly sure the wheels are good ok, i know your trying to help and appreciate it but the general consensus is that the wheel is good and i dont think you have ridden it. also apex is aussie not uk, thats why the fork costs like 110 pounds in the uk which is like 170USD and the same with the bars.

About a month probably, the fork legs bent and no he doesn't he's a light rider. I'd say there worth 10-15 quid though.

to me thats not worth 10-15 as i got swish forks for 30, one of the strongest forks for its weight as its made out of 6082 alu not 6061, 6082 is stronger and it has a lifetime warranty + it 0 offset which i like. thanks for the help though as you gave me experienced based opinion.

scootering in wales ftw, but i moved to sweden for 1 year now and newport was FULL of park rats. you should go to the new park opening there though, looks lush and opens on friday i think although apparently no scooters are aloud in the bowls but that hopefully wont be followed through.
your probs wales best rider anyway

They're bars are half decent from what I've heard.... forks are ugly a shit. Deck is too skinny for me and the only wheels that i don't hate are eagles and protos :)

that is a fairly fussy wheel choice there, not that it matters that much im just saying there are other nice wheels, for example vertx and any razor metal core imo is fairly nice and id guess pro comp/epic wheels are fairly nice although ive never ridden them

Yeah, I haven't had luck with any other company's. Eagles were like the first wheel company out and protos are so heavy duty. I'm a fussy OCDwhen it comes to wheels

i got the complete last year for christmas

the bars are strong for me, i threw the scooter cuz im like that and it landed on the bar and it didnt bend.

the forks are going fine aswell, but a bit heavy

the deck is good im riding it now and everything about it is fine, so it the brake

only things bad are the wheels, clamp, stock headset and grips

the wheels dehubbed in less than a month, im not even that sketchy of a rider, all of the clamp bolts snapped, the headset bearings broke and the grips are comfy but wear down quick
