Hi, welcome to skates.co.uk, my name's Ben. Today I'm going to be chatting about the Grit Elite 2 scooter.
This is a brilliant scooter, perfect for intermediate and pro riders who are really looking to try out some crazy tricks
and stunts down the skatepark, and need a heavy duty scooter that's going to take some beatings.
OK let's start at the top - we've got Y-bars here, with an extra strut at the top for extra strength.
We've got lovely silicone grips with bar ends included
Going down you've got a triple clamp, an internally you've got an ICS.
ICS is an Internal Compression System, which is held together with a bolt that runs from here, all the way into the bars, held together with a star nut.
What that does is hold everything together extra securely, making sure there's no wobble.
It also spreads any pressure put onto the bars, making it much less likely that you will snap your bars.
Inside you've got an Neco heat treated threadless headset, and gusetted threadless forks that are reinforced for extra strength.
Going down you've got 100mm metal core wheels with ABEC 9 bearings inside
Now bearings work on a scale of 1-9 with 9 being the fastest, and 1 being the slowest
So these are really fast, really nice bearings meaning you will get an incredibly fast and smooth ride.
We've got an amazing one piece deck, made of 6061 steel that is very high quality strong steel, that has been heat treated for extra strength.
You've got a lovely one piece brake, a flex brake.
With a flex brake there's no spring involved, just a continuous piece of metal.
The benefit of getting a flex brake instead of a spring brake is that you are less likely to brake overly hard and damage your wheels.
Overall this is a perfect scooter for intermediate riders and pros.
If you're serious about trying some tricks and you might do your scooter some damage, you really want to get yourself a long lasting scooter
that's going to take some punishment, and this scooter will take a lot of punishment

Thanks a lot, bye!
