Wobbly Bars, leading to?

[William Juniper]

Hey guys, recently i bought an addict deck with a sputnic integrated headset. I assembled the headset correctly, put my bars and clamp on, tightened my clamp and then put my ICS bolt inside my forks. I tightened my ics til it was a good spin..... But when I ride my bars wobble, my headset wobbles. Even though i put my ics in, it still wobbles like i have threaded compression.....

People are telling me to get SCS, spacers, new headset etc.

When I dont know what the problem is.......

try just tightening it really hard

Check the bottom headset cup mine was kinda uneven so i took it to the shop that i bought it from and got a new one

if you tighten it all the way and its still loose, you need spacers

 

[William Juniper]

I tightened everything as hard as I could. What do spacers do exactly? I have never used them before

 

[Bob_Drenth]

You need to tighten your ICS FIRST then your clamp

 

[William Juniper]

i will try that^^

I tightened my ICS first and it got rid of most of the wobble.. Just a tinnnnyyyy bit left.

make sure everything fits properly and is the right size

Loosten your clamp all the way. THEN tighten the ICS bolt,

try hitting the starnut further up your bars and use locktite

I loosened my clamp all the way then tightened my ics bolt........ then the clamp... but its still wobbly....... im going to get spacers.

DON'T GET SPACERS! Just hit the starnut up a little more.

 

[William Juniper]

Ill try it

JUST A LITTLE BIT THOUGH, and ICS is a bit less reliable than HIC or SCS.

 

[William Juniper]
