Stunt scooter Clamps
How Does a Scooter Clamp Function?
A stunt scooter clamp secures your bar to the fork, preventing any movement during usage by tightening the connection.
Clamps are available in various sizes, defined by the number of bolts: single, double, triple, and quad. It is uncommon to find single clamps on trick scooters. Ensure you choose the correct size clamp with the appropriate diameter for compatibility. The specifications or manual often guide you to the correct size.
Choosing Between Standard and Oversized Clamps
Clamps are offered in both standard and oversized styles, determined by their inner diameter. Standard clamps feature a 32 mm inner diameter suitable for standard bars. On the other hand, oversized scooter clamps have a 35 mm inner diameter for oversized bars. Some oversized clamps can fit standard bars with the use of an inner shim.
Understanding SCS Clamps
SCS (standard compression system) clamps integrate a compression mechanism, serving as both a clamp and compression system. These clamps come in triple and quad variants, recognised for their ease of maintenance and reliability in linking your fork and bar. SCS clamps require an adapter to use a bar with a slit. By opting for SCS, you lower the risk of bar breakage while allowing height adjustment without needing to cut a slit.
