Why buy Root Industries Invictus Scooters?

Q

What are the deck dimensions?

A

The Invictus deck measures approximately 4.8 inches wide and 19.5 inches long. Its headtube angle is 83°, providing responsive steering while offering enough foot space for park tricks. The deck’s extrusion is reinforced at the neck, increasing strength without adding much weight.

Q

What wheels are included?

A

Invictus scooters come with 120 mm x 30 mm wheels (Air or Honeycore versions). The extra width improves traction and control when landing from airs. Root’s urethane formula offers a smooth, fast roll with excellent rebound.

Q

Which bars are used?

A

Invictus models use chromoly steel Air T bars, measuring about 24 inches tall and 22.8 inches wide. Chromoly offers strength for heavy landings and repeated impacts without adding excessive weight.

Q

What compression system is installed?

A

The scooters use HIC compression. HIC provides a strong connection with fewer parts than SCS, ideal for park riders who prioritise weight savings and easy adjustments.

Q

How does the Invictus differ from the Type R?

A

Invictus scooters feature wider wheels, a slightly bigger deck and taller bars, making them more park-focused. They also use HIC compression instead of IHC, increasing strength and bar stability. The Invictus is suited for riders who want to push park tricks further.

Q

Who should choose an Invictus?

A

Intermediate to advanced riders aiming for park tricks and high airs. The wider wheels and sturdy bars offer stability on ramps and during flips. Beginners may find the setup heavier but will appreciate it as they advance.

Q

Is the Invictus customisable?

A

Yes. You can swap wheels (up to 30 mm wide), bars or forks, provided you match the compression type. Root components are standard sizes, allowing compatibility with other brands.

Q

How do I maintain this scooter?

A

Inspect the deck for cracks, tighten compression and clamp bolts evenly and lubricate bearings. Rotate the wheels and check the tread; replace them when worn. Avoid leaving the scooter wet or dirty to prevent corrosion.
