Hic, Starnut Problem

[Zach Hamrick]

So currently im running Smx, MGP Nitro, VertX Hic bars.
With a lucky compression cap.

The problem is, everytime I go to loosen/tighten my headset the bolt just spins around. Il spin it to tighten it wont tighten or loosen. Ill spin it to loosen and it wont loosen. So pretty much my bolt wont come off my forks starnut. Therefore, leaving me with a loosened headset.

Do you guys have anytips on how to get the bolt out. Im going to a bike shop in a couple minutes to see if they can help, any ideas what to tell them or is there something I can do at home?

Thank You.

sounds like it's stripped???

 

[Zach Hamrick]

Yeah, but how the f*ck am I supposed to get that sh*t out?

You can drill out the bolt until it's in bits and pieces. You could also cut the head of the bolt off, then take the fork and hammer the starnut out the bottom.

You should be damn happy you dont have an integrated star nut.
Just drill it out like Mikey said, tell the people at the bike shop to do it. They'll probably get you all fixed up.

Two Wheel will help you.

Two wheel did it for me, took like an hour, but I got to play on the computer while david fixed my sh*t.
