[jammy28]

i'm thinking of getting a proto SCS clamp, i know what to do etc. but can you install a starnut in internally threaded forks (mgp nitro forks)
plz reply thanks

yep. you might just have to bend the flanges or file the starnut down slightly but it will work

Are they the same as the 2011 nitro extreme fork? Cause in the sotm august thread some kid is running those forks with proto scs lol

If the head stripped its east ti fix. It happened to my tilt top cap. Hammer a allen key 1 size larger intothe hole, use wd40 to get it back out. Then go in and out afew times to ware he shape in. It works a dream
