Luke_zoo Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 On my koxx vinco I snaped the star nut and I did not have a headlock so I made my own I used:10mm threded pole6 washers ( one rubber washer) 1 10mm locking bolt1 normal 10mm bolt when you have done this bolt the bottom of the forks and the top cap and tighten it up and saw off the extra bits.It holds even when going onto the front wheel.This is what it turned out like.
