An essential MTB fork star nut

The MTB fork star nut plays a key role in adjusting your headset. Installed inside the fork steerer tube, it allows the top cap bolt to apply preload to the headset bearings. Without a properly installed MTB fork star nut, achieving a stable and play-free cockpit is impossible.

This 1"1/8 size matches the most common standard in mountain biking, suitable for disciplines such as cross-country, enduro, or trail riding.
