Have you ever had to change your bike's compression plug?
if I only put one 10mm spacer on top I should be fine, right? or should I get a longer expansion plug?
Will a compression plug work on a aluminum steerer tube?
Good video. A traditional stem and spacer setup may have been a better choice since it would be more relatable to more people.
Carbon sucks. Alloy is much better
Bro how did a crazy starnut went in my carbon fork
Hello, i've had problems recently with my steerer plug. Addict RC, 2021 (1"1/4 steerer) even with some carbon paste, torqued at the right torque, my expended slips into the steerer tube while i screw the compression screw on the top cap. I don't want to over tighten it! It's like if it can't grip enough on the inside of the steerer tube, gives some play on the head tube, not ideal!
The 6Nm on the top cap is the FINAL max torque AFTER you have set your bearing preload and secured the stem bolts. The max headset preload is 2Nm. Maybe try reading the assembly manual of this or any modern carbon bike before you instruct everyone in how to crush headset bearings and potentially damage the bearing seats of their expensive carbon frames.
I’ve crushed 2 Felt Carbon steerer tubes and 2 carbon seat posts on 2 Felt VR’s at it’s recommended 6Nm torque specs. Torque was checked to be correct with 2 Park tool torque wrenches. I’d recommend starting with 4-5Nm on carbon bikes
Can I use an aluminum compression plug on a carbon tube?
Can a normal star nut fit in a carbon fork?
thank you for detailed video. I plan to replace the form on electric mtb and wonder which one is better to use starnut or the Compression Plug ?
thanks i realised my bottom bit for the plug dropped in my fork lol
Its manons bike
can you use compression plug to an aluminum steerer tube? newbie question
Thanks for this video, I just bought my first bike carbon bike with a a carbon steerer and wanted to adjust the spacer stack. I took the bars and stem off and encountered my first compression bung. "WTF is that" I thought. Manual said adjustment requires "specialist tools" and that I need to take it to a LBS. I can see now by "specialist tools" they meant a torque wrench.
The top cap is for setting the preload in the headset bearings, 6nm may not sound much but could easily damage the bearings. Also although the clamp bots have a nm setting it's better to use an alan tool first to get equal loading through the bolts, ie done one bolt so it just tightens then the other, then use the torque tool.
tq for the info
Omg thank you so much
6 or 8 NM aint much.
Pwede po pala sa aluminum or steel fork yan sir?
Tol ilang nm kaya dapat dyan sa compression plug
Thank you so much I subscribed
Ask ko lang boss pwede ba yan compression expander sa alloy na fork?Thanks
Noy ok yan ah bka meron ka jan na d na ginagamit salyada mo na sakin ung badget meal lng,, pahug naman ng channel ko,, nahug kona channel mo
is the removal order loosen stem first, then loosen cap and compression, then remove stem, or is it loosen compression first and then stem (for aluminium tube and stem)? Thanks for great video.
How to remove star nut?
What one is safer ?
For carbon steerer it’s a piece of shit! With the recomended torque you can crack your steerer tube! Use a longer compressor device
Thank you very much mate :) just fixed my road bike stem cap.
Thanks. I was wondering why mine was different from everyone else's! Carbon bike. I'm still having trouble fixing the play in it when I put on the front brake and rock it. The bolt is done up tight.
