Scooter compression system HIC / Tighten your HIC

If the bar on your scooter feels loose, follow these simple steps:

  • First, remove the bar by loosening the clamp with a hex key.
  • Next, use the hex key to firmly tighten the HIC compression bolt at the top of the fork, where the bar was removed.
  • Finally, put the bar back on and firmly tighten the clamp bolts with the hex key again.

Your scooter may feel very tight afterward — that is normal. After a few rides the setup can settle; check the bolts again and re-tighten if needed before you ride.
