  2. Thanks for the input fellas. but as the steerer is not too short by 20mm. I'll get getting a new pair Monday. With a "normal" stem should be back running for next end!!

    as for what people said. headlock would work as the one I had (didnt really want to buy new) the threaded bit was too big for the forks and stuck out 50mm!

    Hope Hed doctor - too big. I would have loved one, but with having a thick steerer tube wouldn't work.

  3. I was wondering if anyone could give be a bit of advise/pointers. I need to somehow replace my star nut in my Neon forks. I've had two "small" star nuts pull up the steerer. It doesn't matter how far down they go,or how straight they are they only last around 4 weeks and destroy them selves. ( with correct tool too)

    I'm wanting to machine up a plug type insert with a thread down the middle to do away with the starnut. Interference fit if possible or tight enough so it wont spin. Or should I use epoxy to stick it in?

    Just wont advice before I go mental on a lathe.

    Sort of thing I want to make

    Thanks

  4. Was in two minds about if I should keep it or go back to mod. I'll see how things go! Still not 100% bang on. but it will do for now.
