YOUR SCOOTER

when your stopping the wheel is rubbing against the metal of the brake, which is heating up the metal and melts the glue of the griptape

Yeah, I even melt some of the bottoms of my shoes onto flexxies sometimes, always leaves a black mark on switchblades :(

lol ive never heard of this? haha is it only with flexxies? because ive never actually seen a flexxy in real life...

It's called friction. Friction creates heat. Heat at high temperature can melt things like adhesive on the back of a sticker or grip tape. Find a hill, hold your brake all the way down it, then touch your brake. You'll understand. Hahaha

yeah i mean my brakes get hot, but they dont melt griptape and stuff. Just my experiences. Using your brake to manny down a hill does the trick ;)

are flexfenders thinner than razor brakes?
