    I can't find those Ethic Dryade bars in stock on any US website. Anyone know where I could find them?

    Building a lightweight scooter

    Thanks for the input this helps a lot. I forgot to include it because I wasn't purchasing it as I was going to reuse my envy headset and reuse my grips. But which headset and grips would you recommend?

    Building a lightweight scooter

    I'm trying to build the lightest scooter that I can. Let me know if any of the parts in this list are good or bad as I would love feedback on it.

    Bar/Deck doesn't spin with headset on

    So I finally fixed it after more careful examination. Inside the envy headset, there is a rubber O ring. That O ring is what rubs against the deck. That wasn't the problem, but that was my problem in the beginning. I broke an envy bearing, the orange one and ordered a tilt headset. So I put...

    Never buy a complete from thevaultproscooters

When the complete came today from fedex, the complete was not in another box, so now the original box is completely trashed. I've never seen a company be...

    Shady business practices by thevaultproscooters

    So recently I purchased a prodigy s4 for 170$ with a 15% off coupon code from thevaultproscooters.com/. Original price was 199.99. Then today their website goes down for maintenance and they give out a 20% off code. This is where the shady part comes in. Now when the site went back up, the...
