Starnut too deep!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TomK]

Okay so i got some bars and to my luck there was a starnut but i put them on and put my fork on and the starnut is just a tad to deep. So it there anyway i can pull it up a little?

make a longer bolt by getting a threaded rod and putting a cap nut on it

What so like get a threaded rod and connect it too the compression bolt?

Depends how much a tad is. I would just get a new starnut for 3 bucks.

if you can go to a bike shop and buy a 1 1/4th inch starnut.

if yuou cant them take your bars to home depot or whatever store you have, find a threaded rod that fits, and 2 nuts. tighten the 2 nuts at the end against eachother and do whayt you would with a normal compression system

Cut bars a little.

I did what nick said but with a short compression bolt from a bike and cut the head off and tighted that to a nut and the nut to the long scooter compression bolt and it worked so im good
