Great idea Sherlock (not) now I've got a bent bolt.
Thanks! Just had a bike shop try to sell me the tool to do this, didnt need it. Your method or the socket others mentioned works fine.
genius, made my day thank you!
Thank you, saved me $20 , just subscribed,
When do I replaced my old star nut with a new one?
Well, I just ruined my star nut with this method... so my MTB build project is on hold till tomorrow. :/
Couldn't you just leave the fork in the frame and use the wheel as a soft pad instead of taking the fork off and using a rubber mat on the ground? Can the star nut be installed while the fork is still in thr frame I guess is what I'm asking
Set the nut and bolt on top of the tube and grip the bolt head with a pair of pliers. Hit the pliers rather than the nut and every couple of taps reseat the pliers. Works every time no fuss.
"I havent got one of these tools" he's holding it in his hand whilst saying it lol
Thank you for this video, I just recently insert my star nut
Love the bodge job, I am not buying a new tool for someone I am only going to do every few years, thanks so much!!
"I haven't got one of these tools." What's that in your hand then?
do i need to lock the fork before smashing the nut?
*How the once mighty British have fallen when they start jerry-rigging tools instead of using proper setups.*
Great video.
Hi; how do i remove my stuck top screw on the star nut.?
Thanks! Always the right video’s here!
Can I punch it out in such a way to re-use it, ie in a different fork?
Using any method is good as long as you can keep the nut square within the bore of the tube. If its not square, it won't be central. If its square it should center itself.
I would also use a socket which would work better than hammering a bolt and possibly not getting aligned, the socket would be uniform all round when hammering. Oh see below lool
Hey man thank you for sharing this learned something new and are you from bakersfield by any chance i seen the sticker and it said 661skate haha
Does it scratch the fork when you push it down?
fit a hope head doctor
I think you mean 15 mm down not 15 cm down!

Nice lods ❤️‍🔥
That’s right, a pile driver!
Older Video I know. Why not use a bike stand/clamp to hold the steerer tube, then grip the steerer tube with your off hand as well as you do the initial set? That would be setting against a more rigid hold. Of course, would need to be able to brace with the second hand so it does not pound out of the bike stand clamp. The vice tap is great too.
nice trick
This worked for me as I’m building an EBike. Trying to hammer it with a rubber hammer was a fail because the shocks kept absorbing the hits lol. Thank you for saving me a headache!
LMAO at the upside down technique, luv it thanks
MASTER 😎👌👍
How about a video on installing suspension?
Calvin it would be neat to see a video about your techniques to remove a star nut in those rare instances when that's called for.
Mind blowing
