So i need to replace the starnut in my Epic forks and the don't use regular 1 inch starnuts, they use a 7/8th inch one and i can't find one anywhere online or at any scooter/bike shop, anyone know where i can get one?

Do a makeshift lathe trick :) wind the bolt all the way into it, then put the bolt into a drill and press the trigger. Then while the starnut is spinning really quickly you rub the file on the flanges of the starnut, it wares it down to 7/8.

That's a good idea
