Addict ICS 10 Help!

You should get the Allen Key with the Fork. It comes with it just like the District Forks.
It should also come with the ICS10 starnut

In my opinion, ICS can be just as good as SCS or HIC if done right.. But addict failed to do that. Their ICS kit blows. I traded the forks for some Declare IHCs so I could use standard sized bars.
Basically, you're gonna need a HUGE allen key (that they don't send you) and the bolt goes all the way to the top of the star nut, and screws into a special 3/8" threads 1-1/4" starnut (larger threads than standard size, not compatible with other ICS kits). AND it comes loose in one jump without threadlock or plumbers' tape.
Scooter companies need to start fucking deciding on ONE style of compression. The whole two sizes of bars, two sizes of forks, three types of compression, hundreds sub-types of ICS is getting annoying.
IHC > all.

I had the same problem. Just put the bolt through your spacers as you install your wheel and tighten it and it stays in place.
Oh ok, but thanks for the help guys! Ive decided to just go SCS nowLock if you want
I'm not sure if it's build the same way as the addict dagger fork but if it is, you will have to cut off the intergrated top cap to install the star nut from the top.
