there was a hole in the bars and fork and somehow that bolt holds it all together.


at least thats what it looks like.

definantly does not look dialed

I remember seeing this, I think it's like ics but with no starnut in the bars. It uses that bolt thing instead.

 

[Dewey]

it probly makes the bars weaker considering that theres a hole drilled in the middle of the bar

bump?

 

[Hunter Treviranus]

oh ya i remember seeing this....idk how it works tho

 

[Joe Riley]

It was basically ICS and then a hole was drilled through your forks and bars so you could bolt them together. It's not very effective, considering that hole would be a major weak spot especially if the bolt was too close to the slit, and/or overtightened.
