Sam T Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 They do not manafactor 1 inch star nuts mate unforunetly, you have to get a Headlock. My mate snapped his star nut and that's the only way to fix the problem. They sell a few on Chain reaction, you want the BMX one, only about £10. Hope this has helped out mate, Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Vandart Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 Or you can get the middle size and smash it in, this works so dont go f**king saying it doesn't I have done it for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just pointing out, that you can buy star nuts that fit Echo forks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew62 Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 I've had a 1'' star nut in my zoo forks for years as they're readily available to buy. So deng's mate obviously isn't the complete fountain of knowledge he professes to be. Be humble about it guys in the wake of how you have just been proved totally wrong.
