I think it would be a cool idea to get a bunch of peoples inputs who actually ride scooters on ideas and stuff that can be changed on the A4 to make it stronger/better, and we could email a list of things to razor? Im sorry if this doesnt seem like a good idea, but it seems like a way to get exactly what you would want in a scooter, without having to mod it like crazy. I know razor probably wont use most of the ideas we give, but it still seems worthwile if some performance-enhancing things were to be used in the next scooter razor releases.

Here are a few:

Full deck grip that isnt shit

Reinforced Folding Mech

Stronger Wheels with faster bearings

cool paint jobs besides just silver aluminum

and others..

leave some feedback on this idea

grindplate like skateboards have<img src="http://www.whatbothersyou.com/smilies/wtf.gif" border="0">

BMX grips there r so many different kinds and feels u can't just say BMX grips

bolted bars do u mean where the push botton is or where the adjust ment is to move the bars up and down?

wants this "other good stuff" u speak of



Stuff i would like to see

Soft rubber BMX style grips

Old a's rereleased with the welds welded completely around

sold with yak type wheels

faster bearings(as said before)

NO folding mech completely(spelling?) solid

keep the double clamp like on the a4 i think it looks cool :D

good full deck grip(like said before) but solid black

metal barends

good headset silmalar to the FSA pig unsealed

fork reneforced made out of a thicker steal

thats all i can think of right now lol

Hey, sorry to tell you but... ITS NOT GONNA HAPPEN. People on razor said it was hard enough to get them to make the pro model, and that took like what, 2 years to make when all they did was make some grip tape, double headclamp and a little tiny reinforcement on the deck.

I think it could happen if enough people showed support for the idea and razor knew they would make a big enough profit to make it worth their time

at least razor tried to do something, everyone loved the old b models and when they stopped making them people got mad, and now theyve brought it back better than before but with lots of room for improvement.

if your not satisfied, go start your own company and make your $200 dream scooters and try to get people to buy them.

yea this has been brought up before. i say dont bother... im pretty satisfied with the pro models. even though mine just broke today after 2 months. the only thing they could change to make me happier would be better griptape. mine ripped off in a week haha

Haha i knew some noob would make a topic like this sooner or later...anyways, theres nothing wrong with the A4, we ride scooters for the decks, and to me the A4 has a great deck, and also good grips...and most of us dont mind modding up our scooters, so suck it up deal with the problems your having...which is most likely a fork breaking, or your wheels, and learn to mod correctly...and youll be fine.

That's why we have mods. Gosh someone should just write (type) a whole freaking thing on the history and stuff about Razor or a summary of what has happened to the scootering scene since the beginning of SR and force noobs to read that and if they don't they we can actually have a good reason to get them banned. I thik it would just be a little more fair instead of having them make treads like this and they only have bits and pieces. And I'm sure some of us would be willing to do this. I'm not saying one person do this, i'm saying if we all kind of contribute to this "History" thing one of the mods could slap it all together and yeah... I don't know what else to say. Just an idea I had.

Yes, i agree the a4 has a strong deck and everything, im just talking about being able to be able to buy a scooter and not have to mod like a bunch of different things, just a few. things like bmx grips not everyone would be satisfied with because some people prefer foam, but something like a locked folding mech or no folding mech at all making it completely solid would be something everyone would want. As i said in my first post i know razor probably wont use most of the stuff we send but i still think it would be worth it. I still also think to make anything happen we would need to make it worth razors time and they would need to know they would be making a profit off of this. i think some things sound reasonable im not trying to ask razor to completely change the things they are doing to scooters, although i am trying to get peoples inputs on what can be done to make these stronger/better, and if thats noobish.. then im a proud noob haha

why are we even talking about this/?? isnt it more fun to customize anyway?? you get to ride your shit the way u want it, not some standard scooter put out by razor....and even if we did get a petition going or whatever, some people still probably wont be happy what comes out....so get over it cause the pro model kicks ass except for simple shit that you have to replace anyway.
