Threaded vs Threadless forks
Last Updated: 04/23/2013
Threaded forks have been around ever since Razor started making scooters. The downside with threaded forks is that because of the threads in the top tube, the thickness is actually greatly reduced. Making threaded forks much more likely to break in between where the threads are. The upside though is that you can easily assemble and use you current Razor Pro Model Headset and Bars.  Our threaded forks though are made with a much thicker top tube than the stock Razor Pro Model Fork which greatly increases the strength and durability.

Now you might just be thinking why not get a threadless fork then? Well the difference is instead of buying just a threaded fork, when you buy a threadless fork you also have to buy a threadless headset and a compression system like ICS, SCS, and HIC. Although it is considerably more expensive almost all riders these days ride a threadless fork because of the option of buying a much smoother and stronger headset and a nicer compression system vs. using threaded compression.
