potts mod on a new school bike???

(1/2) > >>

HARORIDER:
ok guys and gals
BITD we used to do the potts mod if we had front brake to allow bars to spin,how is this done now on a new school bike with a threadless fork? ie bike has a top cap and star nut???
i know one of you will have the answer :daumenhoch:

SaMAlex:
Some forks come with a top nut/star washer with a cable hole. Usually the ones with brake mounts.

Once the stem is tight you can take out the star washer to get the cable down there.
(you will need to knock it all the way down cos it wont wanna come up)

christhejob:
or drill a hole down the middle.  or the side.   or buy a headset with a hollow bolt in the middle of the star washer..  all valid.....

HEYWOOD BMX:
 :) You can get hollow bolts and matching starnuts.Halfrauds had DB ones recently.

macky:

think most of them have hole's for cables anyway don't they?
