Nothing Wrong with that? Kid you name on here is Creativescoot, Change it because all that guy is doing is being creative, And your trying to rag on him?

Edit: I just noticed ive met this guy before and i talked to him about this stuff, He makes his own pegs, and he works (Or owns IDK) at a machine shop. If you have the tools to do this stuff why not?

well if you shred then your just ruining those parts, cause that shit makes everything so much weaker. and idk about you, but i dont have money to just throw out like that.
i mean look at that scs, it has like no material on it, but im done arguing.,

That did weaken that scs at all, That thing is probably still going strong.

dude, you do the stupid shit to your scooter, you drilled like off center holes in the neck, grinded down your deck plate so it looks retard, cut out a huge hole in your headtube, cut an excesive amount of holes in your scs. and now you shaved down the diameter off your bars, theyre gonna brake in two seconds, im sorry, but its just retarded.

You might want to learn to spell before you call some one a retard. It's break.

he took material off the sides and the front, if he actually rides his scooter itll bend back, or itll break, theres only material on the corners.

They weren't designed for hic, they fit a regular 1 1/8 steerer tube. And I. Switched to baby because these bars are taller than my other ones and I had the baby laying around so rather than making another pair of short bars, I kept these as tall as possible. And guys right, no mods I've made have weakened my scooter, just trying to make the stuff my own so it doesn't look like every other scooter posted on here. Sorry guys.

you dont need to apologize, its just the material was put there for a reason, and tom, i didnt call him a retard, i said it WAS retarded. maybe you should read.

And also, I left enough material at the top of my scs for it not to snap, aluminum is surprisingly resilient, and I'm not jumping down ten stairs or killing gaps, I'm 24, have a child and can't afford to take a lot of physical risk. So I keep myself interested by modding my scoot and trying stuff out. You are right, a lot of people can't afford to mess up or scrap parts, I'm lucky enough to have a good job, and so if I mess something up I can buy new parts. I enjoy messing around with stock stuff and customizing it, just what I'm into. I work in a machine shop, so it allows me to messaround with it. I'm sorry to all those who struggle with what I'm doing, just trying to have fun.

And I agree that the material is put there for a reason, companies want to make their parts strong enough to suit a large range of riding styles, from brutes to tech people and everything in between. I just know how hard I am on my scooter, and know my own limits. I have a pretty good grip on the structural integrity of metal and machining it. That's the only reason I do what I do. Seriously, didn't think it would be received this way.

this is why i do what i do, it also helps with future development so we can take them (scooters) to the next level of engineering which will only benefit us
