an ics scs mix

[LNluckylucky]

so i was wondering what you guys think of this, i am currently using ics ( lucky smx fork and district AL-2 bars ), if i took a proto scs, cut the slit in my bars, and still ran the ics bolt through the fork so it would reach the bars but tighten the bar on to the scs clamp and then tighten the scs just like any other scs clamp.
give me your opinion on this

its kind of like the scooter zone version but with the starnut inside the bars for more strength.

Use a bolt and nut inside the SCS and no starnut. That is how my brother's SCS is and it works great, never has to be tightened.

 

[LNluckylucky]

why not use the starnut?

Then it's basically ics with a quad clamp, not scs at all.

 

[LNluckylucky]

but the bars would be pressed down on to the clamp so it would be stronger in a sence

If you want stronger, just go straight scs.

SCS is probably the strongest compression there is, and why would you pay 70 dollars just to use it as a quad clamp? lol

 

[dpnelson31]

why not use the starnut?

You could, but I was just giving another idea that is similar to yours. Starnuts suck because they break.

 

[Dom Marconi]

This is retarded. What is the point? You would have to take off your wheel to tighten compression, add weight with the huge bolt, and have to deal with those shitty starnuts in the bars that nobody likes.

but the bars would be pressed down on to the clamp so it would be stronger in a sence

And no, it would make anything stronger haha.

the thing is that i dont want a starnut in my fork cuz i had one in my fork and it came out in like less then a week and i already had the starnut in my district bars and thats when i switched to ics and its been lasting months. so im ok with the starnut in my bars and i hear that proto's come loose so it would add some extra supporn to my bars

 

[LNluckylucky]

im pretty sure they only brake if you tighten your clamp before the compression

 

[gjdadj]

thats actually a pretty good idea

 

[Chris Vincent]

No.

 

[gjdadj]

it would work just as good as any other compression out

 

[Chris Vincent]

Ics is terrible and it would be completely pointless.

dont use the starnut inside the bars. use the bolt how it was used on the district forks but using an scs clamp, just put a nut on top(2 works even better). ive run it for more than 3 months without adjustment(changed the headset). its way better than starnuts and all you have to do is get the allen key that fits and you are set.

actuelly ive been running ics for a pretty long time now and i love it.

i did this for like a year, its good just like ics except stronger bars because you wont have slits
