To install the Hopey steering damper in my White Brothers DT 1.2 fork, first I needed to remove the star nut.
I see quite a few posts on various forums about removal of star nuts, and how difficult it is. It really isn't a tough procedure, and only takes a minimum of time and effort to do it correctly. The alternative is to drive the nut all the way through the bottom of the steerer, but that scratches everything up and smacks of caveman mechanics.
