Through headset routing for barspins
"I used this to allow easy routing of the front brake through the headset. Very easy to install and works perfectly!"
The magic of the EDC Top Cap is how it's installed on your steerer tube. In order to install the Top Cap, you have to thread the steerer tube of your fork. Our EDC Tap Tool makes the job quick and easy. You don’t even need to remove your stem.
Enduro world champions and athletes around the globe choose the EDC Top Cap for their race bikes. It’s light, trustworthy and gives you the most storage options of any in-stem EDC carrier.
There are a couple possibilities for this:
1. Is the mutli tool oriented correctly within the EDC tool body? If it is backward and not meshing will the tire lever, the tool will bulge and be difficult to remove
2. The multi tool side plate bolts have loosened off and are jamming against the top cap.
For both situations the solution is to: 1. Loosen the stem bolts
2. Using soft jaw pliers, or pliers with a cloth, loosen off the top cap.
3. pull the top cap and tool off the steerer tube.
4. Either remove the multitool, or tighten the side plate bolts. The tool will then slide out of the top cap and you can reassemble everything correctly.
Please email support@oneupcomponents.com if you have any trouble with this process, or damage anything, and we will be happy to help.
It is likely that the top O-ring is dry. Best thing to do is rub a small amount of grease onto the o-ring and re-install it.
If that does not help, please email us at support@oneupcomponents.com.
Although some companies will state that threading their steerers will void the warranty, we have not been shown evidence of any failures directly a result of a threaded steerer tube.
It will likely damaged the threads for further use, but you can if necessary, install a star nut in a steerer tube that has been threaded.
We do not have the fork plugs available as a single item. they are only available within the top cap kit.

"After fitting 2 bikes with the threadless EDC holder I had a fork that would not fit one. I had been dubious on threading the steerer tube previously, but figured it was worth a shot. Stupid easy, more storage space. This is the route I will go from now on."
"easy to install with the tap, I have done my fox 40 and fox 38 forks now, bit of sanding for the fox 38 to get the tool to fit, 2015 fox 40 only fits small storage on the bottom(tapers down too much for the large storage) super happy with all Oneup component prodaucts"
"Works well."
"Found it to be an easy install overall if you follow the instructions and ensure enough spacer room above to preload the headset. I had previously noted quite a few people saying the top cap didn’t seat nicely with other cassette tools, resulting in scratching and damage to the top cap. I pre tested my cassette tool and found that there was a lot of play as well. I gave it a wrap with a bit of electrical tape and that was enough to snug it up and prevent damage to the top cap, without affecting the install on two bikes. Otherwise really happy with it. Considering adding one to my commuter bike as well."
"Super easy to tap and use with the tap kit."

"worked well with great accent."
"They helped me submit a warranty and got the part I needed. So thankful"
