Pen'z Gear MX Tutorial

I decided to mod my Pen'z Gear because it's getting old and the metal weight rings have gotten rust. I used spare parts to mod this so it's a lot cheaper. Furthermore, my Pen'z Gear was a gift from relative. =D

Creator: cyshing

Difficulty: ★★

STATS

Length: 20.2cm

*Measurements and estimated cost are not necessarily exact, may vary based on individual action and source of materials.

THE MAKING

Tuck the random 1-ring grip into the HGG tip.

Cut the G3 grip at the line right after the little window. The bigger section on the left is needed.

Trim the G3 grip until it wraps the cap (on non-writable side) of Pen'z Gear just nicely (leave very little extra length).

Tips: Avoid trimming a big piece off at first. Trim little by little and often test wrap to avoid waste. 

Put the HGG tip from just now into the RSVP cap. (The HGG tip will not be able to take out after tuck in) Then put on the RSVP cap on the Pen'z Gear cap as in picture above.

Take the Pen'z Gear rubber weight and push it all the way onto the Pen'z Gear cap at the other side. There will be a small gap left, it's normal.

Cut a piece of electrical tape and wrap it on top of both the rubber weight and cap to hide the gap.

Screw the Signo tip onto the rubber weight. Now you have something like this. Then just put the Anyball 5-ring grip around the tip and you're done!
