How to Assemble Your Stunt ScooterUpdated 20 hours ago

New scooter just arrived? Let’s get it rolling — no stress, no guesswork 🔧🛴

Most complete stunt scooters arrive 80–90% pre-assembled. All you need is a few tools, a flat surface, and about 10–15 minutes. Here’s how to do it right the first time.


🧰 What You’ll Need

  • Allen keys (usually included in the box — sizes 5 mm and 6 mm)

  • A flat surface to work on

  • Optional: Torque wrench or Loctite (for extra-tight builds)


🛠️ Step-by-Step Assembly Guide

  1. Unbox everything

    • Lay out the bar, deck, clamp, tools, and any extras

    • Double-check that all bolts are included

  2. Attach the bar to the clamp

    • Slide the bar into the clamp or SCS

    • Make sure the bar is centered (equal gap on both sides of the clamp)

  3. Tighten the clamp bolts

    • Use the Allen key to tighten each bolt evenly

    • Go in an X pattern (tighten diagonally) to apply even pressure

    • Don't overtighten — bolts should be snug but not stripped

  4. Align the bar with the front wheel

    • Stand the scooter up

    • Make sure the bar is pointing straight forward in line with the fork

    • Adjust before final tightening if needed

  5. Check everything

    • Spin the wheels — they should turn freely

    • Bounce the scooter — no rattles or bar wobble

    • Tighten headset if needed (especially if using SCS)


⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Misaligned bars = poor control when riding

  • Overtightened bolts = can strip the threads

  • Loose compression = causes wobbling or rattling


🔧 For Scooters with SCS Compression

  • Make sure bars have no slit

  • Compression bolt (inside the fork) should be tightened first

  • THEN attach bars and clamp on top

📦 Pro Tip: Keep the Box

In case of warranty or return, you’ll need the original packaging and parts.
