Scooter Maintenance?

[Victor C.]

Lol for the longest time I ghetto rigged my axles and ----- so I would do that like every day, but now theyre normal with a normal peg so I'll probably leave it

 

[Cannoli]

I need to invest in Loctite/ Lock nuts because my scooter becomes loose hella quick
Also, i have a bright white deck, so it shows everything

I use whiteout as loctite its pretty ghetto but it works

Hahhaa^

And Chris, If my headset will stay tight it's dialed.. But, i usually don't tighten my headset that hard, I like my headset to have NO resistance.

 

[Blake]

Couldn't be bothered haha.

 

[R-Dubya]

I just tighten things as necessary, and grease my headset every couple months. I used to care about my setup being dialed and whatever, but honestly with the way I bend axles and how easy bearings get messed up, it isn't even worth the hassle. As long as it rides nice, I dgaf.

 

[Chris Vincent]

The other day I was riding and my bars fell off... I should really take better care of my scooter haha.

 

[matr!]

I wait until something needs fixing, and then I fix it. There is no need to fix the unbroken, young one.

No but seriously, I clean and oil my bearings (and headset) like every month or two. Had the same bearings for 1.5 years now and they still roll like new.

 

[DavidBryson]

i rarely tighten anything or clean anything on my scooter. i only do it when necessary, not just for the sake of it

 

[gjdadj]

i lube mine whenever it needs it, i clean it every day and tighten whenever it becomes undialled.

 

[GingerNamedTravis]

my clamp and hic come lose daily, and i always somehow mess my bearings up, so i usually take my scooter completely apart about 2-3 times a week.

 

[BenJelinek]

Honestly thanks to vertx I haven't touched my scooter other than to ride it hard everyday for almost 2 months. It stays dialed and solid so well

Vincent kudrna puts a scooter together with perfection. I've been riding one he set up for a couple months now and nothing has come loose.

But this made me think replacing bearings every month or so would be a good idea.

 

[danielBMXisFUN]

my scooter is 100% dialed like when i ride past people they shit their pants cause they don't hear me coming, and im surprised that it stays dialed for weeks, but then all i do is tighten my wheels, and headset when its not basketball dialed

 

[Maz.]

I actually cleaned all the shit from my scooter like last month as it was getting pretty disgusting. Like grease/dusty shit everywhere. I get my brother to dial my scooter every once in a while maybe about every 3months other than that it practically needs nothing doing to it.

 

[jake pearcey]

i tighten everything before a comp

 

[Dewey]

im really anal about my scooter honestly if anything is loose it pisses me off, i take it apart occasionally and grease bearings ect., but as long as everything is tight ill be fine, im known for it by y freinds and they all go to me usually when something is wrong with their setup

 

[paulleparik]

I tighten my scs every 2 days cause of my shitty headset
wheel in front everyday
wheel in back never

 

[JayWatt]

I always put marine grease on the bolts of my SCS and the clamp to prevent them from stripping, I clean my headset every few weeks.

 

[James.]

If it's already working, then don't try to fix it. You might just end up breaking it.

 

[Robert]

i have to put new bearings in about every week
but thats pretty much it
