* SCS and HIC are two common freestyle stunt scooter compression systems—the mechanical setups that lock the fork, headset, and handlebars together so the scooter steers smoothly without wobbling or rattling.
SCS (Standard Compression System)
• What it is: A strong, heavy-duty 4-bolt clamp that doubles as the compression unit itself.
• How it works: A top cap and bolt inside the clamp tighten down directly onto the fork and the bottom of the handlebars.
• Bar requirement: Requires handlebars without a slit at the bottom (or an SCS adapter if the bar has a slit).
• Best for: Street riding and advanced riders who need maximum durability and strength.
HIC (Hidden Internal Compression)
• What it is: A clean, hidden compression setup that uses a star nut, a compression bolt, a top cap, and a specialized metal shim placed over the fork.
• How it works: The compression bolt tightens from the top down into the fork's star nut, holding the fork and headset in place beneath an oversized clamp.
• Bar requirement: Requires oversized handlebars (35mm outer diameter) with a slit at the bottom.
• Best for: Park and all-around riding, offering a lighter and more balanced feel than SCS.
