Do you generally use the same grease for wheel bearings? I saw several people swear by 3 in 1 for wheel bearings. They said it's a good grease because it's medium weight, so not too heavy or too light.
Hey there!
Using the same grease for scooter headset and skatepark scooter wheel bearings isn't ideal. Headset bearings endure rotational forces, while wheel bearings face harsher conditions with dirt and moisture. It's best to use specialized grease for wheel bearings, ensuring proper protection and longevity in skatepark environments.

I ride ihc and my old scooter can do bar throws no problem but my new cant any tips
Every time I move my bar to left/right, I hear a clicking sound coming from the compression... any help?

What happens if youve been spraying WD-40 on your headset for like 2-3 years? Also, is the grease that Shaun uses the same as the grease you can use to stop your bolt from squeaking?
Noah Passwinder it's really bad if u have been using wd-40 for 2-3 years
RESTLIN RAT I tried it with my grease I use for my bolts and it spins smoothly, I always keep my compression loose anyways
If you’ve had one for 2-3 years just get a new one 😂
Can you make a scooter consisting of
Ethic lindwarm v2 deck
tilt red headset
Apex black forks
Chrome spacers
Tilt red scs
Raptor os remi bars or affinity trans red T bars
Ethic red grips
MGP CF filth red wheels or red on black root industries
Hella grip formula g
It would be much appreciated 👍
Kian's Vlogs yes u just have to make sure you have to get an scs fork and the right sized bars like oversized and standered

Heyo
This is not AT ALL the "headset" I was thinking. :P Good video anyway.
What happens if u ride without grease?
Your scooter will explode

I have the longway metro scooter - does it require a micro spacer
ITSTOM every single headset that uses a dustcap needs a microspacer

Why are his forks so tall?
Anthony Markovic its just the brand of the fork some are.
there not really
Anthony Markovic because he is running HIC or IHC where the fork is much longer than an SCS fork
Booter Charlie HIC and SCS use the same fork.
Yee that's IHC bud
I use wd40 and it's been ok
Louis.c 15 you should not use wd 40

This is ridiculous, you're not even greasing the bearings, but just the casings. You need to pull the bearing casing apart to expose the actual ball bearings. Then clean the bearings before regreasing them, them being the actual ball bearings before then rebuilding the casings back to how it was before. Cartridge bearings are called sealed cartridge bearings for a reason, they're SEALED. So greasing the outside of them only serves to insure that they won't get stuck in the cups, but won't do much in the effort to actually lubricate the ball bearings themselves which is the whole point. Learn how to do something completely and correctly yourself before trying to teach others how to do it, that way we'll have less idiots causing mayhem on the roads.
Hi There,
It's great to hear that you are passionate about the scooters! The team are well informed on the bearings and how to properly grease them.
Thank you for the feedback. If you'd like to inform us further, our customer care team can be contacted at info@scooterhut.com.au.
Kind regards,
The Scooter Hut Team.
@@ScooterHutTV My comment, though public, was meant more for the individual in this video, and more importantly, anyone watching it that would be inclined to believe that what he was doing achieved any lasting benefit for his poor unfortunate headset. However, I’m glad to know that someone involved with this video is so well informed. Shame that the individual in question was not. I hope you have a wonderful evening, Mr/Ms ScooterHutTV.
dude makes a good point though if you can go the extra step to regrease the actual bearings inside
can I use oil?
use waterproof lubricant, T9
