How to cover a slit

[NickR]

I've tried covering up the slit on my epic rewinds using an old pair of nitro forks (the original ones), but they don't seem to fit (about 2-3 mm's to big), is there a recommended fork to use or just any fork apart from nitro ones.
thank-you

fill some some of it in with welds?

this is so stupid. why would you put a broomstick in your bars? and ive heard other people try to shove a bottle cap in there too... smh

just use an old fork and cut off some of the forktube (cut it a bit longer than the slit)

im doing it now in my vertx scs and its works fine...

I cut my old ultra pro fork and warped around once with masking tape to make it stay in the bars. Didn't have to hammer it in just put some pressure on it and it went in nice and snug. Its been in there for a couple of months and I'm having no problems. Bars don't rotate, no cracks, I don't have to tighten the scs super hard either. Hope this helps. Oh and I'm riding addict shredder bars if that helps.

Or you could use a HIV shim


Lollllll,olololol auto correct.

You could use a HIC shim if you have oversized bars

I have done this a couple times at the shop...If you have HIC bars, use the bottom of some regular bars or if you have regular bars use an old fork.
