90 degree head tube angle

[schuhman524]

ok so im trying to find out the sizes of bolts for a 90 degree head-tube angle



p.s. im not a noob...well kinda but not really

i tried to ride with my headftube like that and couldnt even whip flat. its crazy different but i guess if you wanna try it out, go ahead

as for the bolt sizes...idk

 

[blake scooters]

i think there 5/16 and 1/4

could you whip flat before you changed the headtube angle?

 

[qwxor]

haha good point, but yeah beware it feels like super different i like rode gregs when his was super straight, and it felt weird as shit

just personal preference

 

[koenscoot]

Yeah well mines not exactly vertical. but its close.
It feels so sick but some people dont like it.

 

[schuhman524]

koen whats the bolt sizes

 

[koenscoot]

for behind the headtube I used 1/2 inch bolt and the other two bolts were 3/8 inch but i dont recomend this.
(unless you dont mind doing a lot of drilling)

mines about at 90, it feels so good, i dunno the bolt sizes

The point is not to make a 90Ã?Æ?Ã?â??Ã?¢ââ??¬Ã?¡Ã?Æ?ââ?¬Å¡Ã?â??Ã?º headtube, it's too make it steeper. Not even flat bmx bikes have 90Ã?Æ?Ã?â??Ã?¢ââ??¬Ã?¡Ã?Æ?ââ?¬Å¡Ã?â??Ã?º headtubes.

I HAVE SOME BIG BOLT IN THE BACK THE NORMAL FOR BOTTOM AND FOR THE FRONT I HAVE A PRO MODEL AXLE WITH BEARINGS LOOKS AND FEELS NICE

 

[Mike Montgomery]

it will just take some getting used to is all

 

[Shaun Walton]

yeah, i have a fat bolt in the back and a axle sized bolt and it is pushed up, not 90 but feels better than pulled back bars

90 degrees is a little excessive... mid 80's is nice if you know what i mean...YE YE!

 

[Jdbug_rob]

i like steep headtubes, i changed mine steep once, it slowly crept back somehow? WTF?

 

[Dylan Kasson]

making your headtube upright is one of the best mods you can do to a scooter in my opinion i love my headtube angle i havent seen anybody with a steeper one haha

 

[gorrilaman]

Might be a stupid question but how do you measure the angle of your headtube? Just roughly by eyes?

 

[Steezeman]

Well I guess technically you could go all scientific and measure out a triangle and find all the angles, but maybe just use a protractor and kinda eyeball it.
