Assembling a Custom Trick Scooter

Building your own Custom Trick Scooter can be hard, not all parts fit together and wrong assembly can destroy the parts. Since a custom trick scooter is unique, there is no manual to assemble exactly your setup. Skatepro gives you a hand here !

In order to assemble a complete Custom Trick Scooter you need following:

1x Deck                       / read more ( Brake & axle included unless otherwise stated )
1x Fork                        / read more ( Not all forks fit with 110mm wheels )
1x Bar                         / read more ( Notice that an oversized bar requires an oversized clamp )
1x Headset                 / read more ( Threadless headset fits only witha threadless fork )
1x Compression sys.   / read more ( There are many systems, the most widespread are ICS, HIC & SCS )
1x Set Grips               / read more ( Grips for bar, fits on all bars, unless otherwise stated )
1x Clamp                    / read more ( Notice that an oversized clamp requires an oversized bar)
1x Griptape                / read more ( Free choice, some you need to cut with a knive to make it fit )
2x Wheels                    / read more ( Notice 1 wheel per package, unless otherwise stated )
4x Bearings          / read more ( Our bearings fits all our wheels, unless otherwise stated )
2x Spacers (8mm)       / read more ( Man kan ødelægge sine kuglelejer uden brug af spacer)

Below a graphical overview with the name of parts. This type has the ICS system

 

Advice and recommendations from Skatepro

  • Find an adult, who has access to proper tools to help and allocate at least 3 hours the first time.
  • Choose parts from the same brand and with dimensions that fit together.
  • Skatepro has a large choice in parts. Light weight parts can more easily break than heavier parts.
  • We advice all more serious riders to choose threadless headset & fork with a compression system.
  • When you receive the parcel, then check whether all parts fit together before starting assembling. (You can return new / unused parts).
  • Allways tighten all screws and nuts before riding and maintain the scooter as described in the manual. Replace defect parts & wearing parts.
  • After time there will always appear some slack in the headset  and even the most expensive one isn't "without noice" quite a long time. (Often it will help to tighten the compression system)
  • Avoid Water, Sand, Humid conditions and too many failed tricks ;)
  • See our video below (in Danish), which shows how a custom trick scooter with ICS is assembled.
  

Notice. Since the release of this video Skatepro has got prof tools for assembling / dismantling headsets and crownrace.
 

Get Skatepro to assemble your perfect Custom Trick Scooter 

Unfortunately we have seen many examples of custom scooter assembled wrong or unsufficient.
This results in not optimal functioning of the scooter and in many cases scooter parts are worn / have become defect very easily.
