ive got blunt strippers will i need new bars?

 

[itzz_lukey]

oh i want scs

If they have a slit then maybe. If not then no.

 

[Drew Kelly]

if u have slits then youd need to cut them

 

[BenJelinek]

everything you have up there would work with what you have now as long as you cut your bars down 2 inches

hey dude dont listen to Michael..if they're the hight u want right now...cut them 2inches smaller and DO NOT cut a slit then they will fit into the scs with a shim..if the are a little low for you..u need to find a shim to put inside of the bars to cover the slits...or if your good at welding..taper your bars to oversized and run hic.

im gonna go for ics,coz my bars have a split,so then i wont need new bars.
Thoughs to ics

 

[Drew Kelly]

u woudnt need new bars for scs just cut off 2 inches from ur bars

 

[Carson .]

i have it and its dialed if you do it right

Yeah, what if I have a slit on my new bars and I switch? Im not buying new bars.. What type of compression should I use? And I'm not cutting my bars shorter, unless somehow they stay at 21 inches high.

yeh but there short as it iss

Nevermind... iPhones slow

SCS raises your bars 2 inches, so by cutting your slits off and putting them in an SCS, the height will stay the same.

22 inches high - 2 inches of slits + 2 inches raised by SCS = 22 inches still!
It's called Zero Displacement. Hahaha. I took Physics class too serious.

and they are normal sized right?.. if so


TAPER them and run hic! thats probably the best option

there 500mm high

oh i cant weld as well

 

[Carson .]

i didnt ask how high they are..

Your retarded. He wouldn't have to cut them if he used a shim/if they fit well into it. That's why I said maybe, instead of telling him yes. And I ment him cutting them. Not buying new bars obviously, that would be dumb.

And like the other guy said about the SCS, 22-2+2=22! Yay for math!

 

[Carson .]

no..u dont understand.. u just started riding scooters like 2 weeks ago.. no.. if HE WANTS TO KEEP THEM THE SAME SIZE HE HAS to cut them ...if they are standard size bars..he has to use a shim inbetween the bars and the inside of the scs otherwise it wouldnt work..

proto made their scs special so it can fit oversized and standard bars..yet standard bars would need a shim.. ALSO if u are going to run hic or scs u need to put a starnut in your fork..if you are going to run ics ..you need to put a starnut inside your bars..
