Video: SCS Scooter Compression Tutorial

By matt | Shop, Video | No Comments

The world of scooter compression systems can be a very confusing world if you don’t know what your doing. You can end up buying the wrong parts or a mixture of incompatible parts. We decided to put together a video series explaining the different types of scooter compressions to help you better understand how to build and maintain your dream scooter.

SCS Scooter Compression. Standard Compression System

In this video we explain what is an SCS compression system (Standard Compression System). This is one of the most popular types of compression systems by our local riders and for good reason, it is seen as one of the more secure systems and opens up a huge range of customisation options.

One of the main things you must be aware of when buying your SCS is that you will need bars without a slit in them, or if your bars do have a slit in them then you will need to cut it off the bottom of the bars. Rampworx offers a FREE bar modification service when purchasing parts from our shop. Traditional your SCS clamp will be taller than a traditional collar clamp, this means that the height of your bars will not be effected if you must trim the bottom off them off.

SCS Clamp top view

SCS systems will also in some cases require some headset spacers. The headset spacers raise up the SCS camp to allow the forks to fit just bellow the inner ledge in your SCS clamp. Once your forks are just below this ledge you can fit in the top cap and screw it into the forks which will hold your compression system together. Remember to not over tighten the top cap as it will not spin!

You can buy everything you need for your SCS scooter compression system here: http://rampworxshop.com

Buyers Guide: Top 5 Reasons you need an MGP MFX Deck

By matt | Feature, Scooter, Shop | No Comments

The NEW Limited Edition MFX Deck‘s from MGP have just landed in the Rampworx Shop so we thought we would give you our two cents on why these decks are on everyones wish list.

Ryan Williams MFX Deck

1. The MFX Deck has been tested by one of the best rider on the planet for over two years before production.

Now, there is not a much better seal of approval than having Ryan Williams throwing one of these MFX decks over a mega ramp day in day out on a world tour with Nitro Circus. If it can handle the demands of R Willys insane level of riding and 100 ft disaster gaps on a daily basis then you can be sure it can take whatever you can throw at it at your local spot and then some.

2. It’s the prefect width for street or park riding.

The MFX Deck ticks all the boxes in this area, no matter if your a street head and only hit up ledges and rails or if you prefer to bust out a flair at your local skatepark the MFX is built for it all. The super wide flat bottom available in two sizes 4.5″ and 4.8″ and comes in 21″ long which makes it perfect for locking into boardslides and lipslides. It also comes with boxed edges making those fingerwhips and grinds easier than ever before. The wide deck also ensures your feet have maximum room when grinding and with a nice subtle 3mm concave throughout the deck for extra grip and comfort. This is also a huge plus when you come to landing air tricks as your landing area just got that little bit bigger.

3. It’s super light and strong!

The tricky part when it comes to making a deck is finding the perfect balance between strength and weight. Too light and it bends and cracks and too heavy and it’s not rideable. With MGPs extrusion technology they have managed to get the MFX Deck weight to just 1.8Kgs! The MFX deck has shaved off all that extra weight found in traditional older decks but without compromising on the strength and reliability that MGP has become famous for. All the stress points in the deck have been reinforced to give you a guaranteed solid ride and it even comes with a new Scalloped 3D Forged 84 degree DownTube!

4. It’s worth way more then £100!

Now some people think £100 for a deck is expensive, but for the amount of quality you are buying you can be sure it’s money well spent. The only reason the MADD scientist behind the MFX deck are able to make this deck so cheap is because of MGP’s extensive production and distribution network. If some other companies where to release a scooter deck with this much research, development and new technology (not to mention years of testing) It would cost twice the price! In our humble opinion this deck is worth closer to the £160-£200 mark. The MFX is great value for money at just £100!

5. It’s super Limited Edition!

Let’s face it. You don’t want to be riding the same scooter as every other guy in the skatepark. The MFX deck is super limited edition, so make sure you grab one before they are all gone!

So, what are you waiting for? Grab your MFX deck here and hit up the skatepark.

Bonus reason

You get 2 free sessions to Rampworx Skatepark worth £15 when you buy a MFX Deck here!

Over the course of her skating career Jenna has won just about every major competition there has been, from X-Games medals to World Championship titles, she has won it all. One of Jenna’s biggest supporters throughout her skating career has been Razor Skates, who decided to reward Jenna for all her hard work and commitment to the sport by giving Jenna her own pro skate.

1. Jenna Downing is donating ALL her profits to Breast Cancer Research!

During the process of designing the skate, Jenna suffered from a Breast Cancer scare and decided that she wanted to draw awareness to the dangers of Breast Cancer that affect women across the world. This has been symbolised by having a pink ribbon on the side of the skate. However, Jenna didn’t want to stop there as she has agreed to donate 100% of the profit she would make from this skate to Breast Cancer Care to help support their continued research.

2. It’s a White skate!

Now if you have ever skated you understand that feeling of putting on a fresh, clean pair of skates. There is something magical about it, you just can’t beat it. And let’s be real, you can’t get any cleaner than an all White Razors SL Boot! Don’t worry about getting them dirty, grab a bottle of White Spirit and wipe away the dirt and boom, fresh as the day you got them!

The wheels come fully loaded with Titen ABEC 9 Bearings, a super fast bearing to help you get up those ramps and get the speed you need. And even the bearings are purple to colour coordinate with the skate!

Letting wheels settle after they have been poured is an important part of the wheel making process and we made sure to let these wheels cure for a long enough time to make sure you have an enjoyable skate with no unexpected surprises.

5. It is a super Limited Edition Skate!

This is the first pro skate from a female pro skater in over 10 years! Razors have produced a limited amount of this skate so you will only be able to get your hands on it whilst stock lasts. Make sure you grab a pair before they are all gone!
