Product Details
The Park Tool TNS-1 Star Nut Setter is designed for the precise installation of star-fangled nuts in threadless headset systems. This tool is essential for ensuring a secure fit of the star-fangled nut in the steerer tube of your bike, a crucial step for setting up threadless headsets.
