Stunt Scooter Forks

Forks for Every Stunt Scooter Configuration

We supply robust and lightweight scooter forks for all kinds of scooters. Whether your stunt scooter is tailored for park, street, or anything else, you'll discover a fork that complements your setup and suits your tastes.

Here, we'll address basic queries you may have when seeking to replace your scooter fork. For an in-depth exploration, see: Scooter Forks Buying Guide.

A Brief Overview of Scooter Forks

Feeling unsure of which scooter fork is right for you? Adhere to these straightforward principles:

Select a fork that can support the wheel diameter and core width you have
Select a fork that will work with your compression system

Whew! Keep reading to gain clarity on these guidelines.

Wheel Compatibility – Diameter and Width

Wheel diameter

Verify the maximum wheel diameter your fork can support prior to purchasing. Many forks accommodate 110 mm wheels, but certain models can support up to 120 mm or 125 mm. Installing wheels that are too large for your fork is infeasible. The fork’s specifications will detail the maximum supported wheel diameter.

Wheel Core width

Typically, scooter wheel width is 24 mm, yet wider wheels are becoming more favoured. Some forks for wider wheels come with spacers allowing you to fit narrower wheels as well. Nonetheless, a wide wheel cannot be fitted into a fork intended solely for narrow wheels.

Understanding Forks & Compression

Choosing a fork compatible with your existing compression system should make installation smooth and simple.

SCS and HIC forks can usually be swapped, and many are labelled by the manufacturer to function with both systems. Although some forks are specifically fine-tuned for SCS or HIC, this often pertains to the length of the fork extending above the headset. HIC forks might be marginally longer than SCS forks, meaning an HIC-optimised fork might necessitate a spacer for use with an SCS clamp.

IHC fork tubes are slimmer than others and should be selected only if you're using an IHC compression setup. If you have substantial reasoning to deviate from this, look at our collection of IHC-to-HIC conversion shims in the scooter compression parts section.

A Distinct Breed: 12-Standard Scooter Forks

The 12STD scooter forks are built to handle larger axles and bearings and also accommodate larger wheels.

Though regular-sized axles and bearings can be mounted on a 12STD fork using spacers and fittings, you'll only truly benefit from a 12STD fork if your deck and wheels are compatible with 12STD as well.

If you are replacing your 12STD fork or switching to a 12STD configuration, make sure to identify if you're selecting an SCS or HIC 12STD fork. Going with what you currently use will help you prevent any compatibility problems involving your bar, clamp, and compression.

Wheel Offset – A Balance of Control and Agility

Offset influences how your scooter maneuvers. A greater offset offers increased stability and smoother steering. Zero-offset places the wheel directly beneath the bar – this results in a more agile scooter, aiding in nose wheelies, though zero-offset forks may be less stable at higher speeds.
