Phoenix forks star nut

[Quincy]

So I ordered I blue phoenix fork and it said on inward that it had a buit in star nut. Does that mean that it doesn't have aluminum threads because I know those strip.

it's fine

Yeah it has the aluminum threads. But aluminum threads on built in starnuts only strip out because people don't know the meaning of compression. It only needs to be tight enough to keep the headset from wobbling. If you strip it out, then you overtightened it.
