r/Scootering

how to we feel about eden moving away from tilt?

Can anyone tell me if i have these spacers on correctly? it’s the only way i could get them to fit😭 it’s the 24mm wheel spacers on the 12std pandemonium. The axle is tightened but the spacer shown in the picture wobbles

Finally after the postal "lost" my package for over three weeks and multiple angry emails they "ahh suddenly found the package". Still getting used to the size after riding way undersized bars for the time they were on the way. Would love to get new grips but i absolutely hate the feeling of them😂

Got rid of my 6x21.5 willow for the 6.5x22.2 Gagliano sig.

Feels great so far, big up the wide decks

Bought for 50 dollars seller said that it sat in a shed for a few years and hasn't been ridden much pretty sure it's a pre built bc literally every part on the scooter Is lucky not sure how much it is worth though, I asked chat gpt how much it's worth they said 200 dollars but I want an actual scooter riders opionion

my friend recently brought a £30 ($40) scooter off fb marketplace, he brought some new bits and asked me to build here are the results (I’m aware 2 clamp bolts are missing some have been ordered)

Old scooter in post because I’m kinda really attached to it because of when I got it and some people that are no longer here who have seen this scooter or even touched it so it feels like the only thing I have left. I gave it a new grip real quick to take it out one last time before either retiring it or having to let it go.

My first ‘pro’ scooter was a Razor Ultra Black label (3? I think) — it is about 15 years old, rusted to hell and a week or two ago, the handlebars lifted weird when popping a curb, twisted and crunched….

Mom saw the scooter and begged me to toss it, and she surprised me with a green Aztek Architect.

Got my helmet, waiting for the kneepads in the mail because I’m too old to be getting an ACL injury.

One of the things I’ve been trying is switching from goofy stance to regular because I skateboard regular and have better pop/kick with my right foot than my left.

When the heat lets up a bit or maybe closer to fall, I’m gonna get the free trial for Run Zombies Run for the dirt scooter (or the aztek) I have for … SoHo, Nolita, just trash NYC streets. I know it’s a running app, but something about the possibility of wiping out trying to escape the 20 second hoard, lying on the ground, and just having to hear snarling and growling.

That being said, I have to wait for a sports clearance (just some health issues and bone density issues that I wanna be cautious about.)

This scooter rides like butter but anything is smoother than that rattly rusty razor I was using, my god I would be scared riding it at night thinking that like someone was gonna pop their head out the window and tell me to F off because it’s that loud. I’m sure some of you know how loud they can be.

So i just got some new parts and im having trouble with getting the scs right and dialed. The first picture is me pulling up on the clamp which is making the space between the dust cover and the neck with bolt fully tightened in the clamp. It just wiggles on both forks. On the Legion i tried FIVE SPACERS. The thick root one and 4 skinnier root spacers. Do i need a tall stack headset? I’m not even worried about it sounding dialed i just don’t want it to wiggle and snap my fork again (although these are stronger forks)

If it means anything the root fork is shorter than the ethic fork but i’d prefer to use the ethic

Parts are:

North Clamp
Root Air oversized fork & Ethic Legion oversized fork
Root spacers
Ethic Dust cover
5.9x22.8 Pandemonium v2
