intergrated headsets

[Josh Young]

i dont know if this has already been a thread. but has anyone done this or can it even be done??? its the one where you cant see the headset at all its like hidden in the headtube. i think it would be bad ass to have one. if so does anybody got any pics of theres???

it cannot be done sorry, unless you get a special made headtube

 

[Chris Picone]

Yeah, can't be done. A cuy at my bike shop said my headset wouldn't work for it. I like the sig though!

It is possible with an after market head tube but there are a lot of reasons why it is not a good idea and yes this has been a thread before.

I know Cory bought a few of the FBM integrated headtubes in hopes of making a scooter but it never happened.

I dunno, only if you get some legit headtubes. If you just make (I dunno if you could) or bought shitty ones then they could ovalize and you'd be in need of a new deck. I'd say stick with regular headsets.

assuming that they would be strong and well made, would it be a good thing to have on a scooter? other than not having to press cups in, is there any major advantage? what about disadvantages? im just trying to get your opinions. also, im making a thread about my parts project soon, i was going to post this weekend but i never got around to it.
