Threading a bike fork Steerer Tube. Unthreaded to threaded Bike steerer tube

In this Video, I add threading to a unthreading bike fork. Using a Die specifically made for threading steerer tubes. The tool I used was a VAR 40B Die holder and a VAR 97698 die for 1 1/8th inch, 26 tpi and with a 60 degree angle. This can be of course replicated for 1 inch and 1 1/4 inch forks using the suitable die.

Thanks for uploading, I'll be attempting this myself soon, so handy to see how it should work!

Nicely done(pretty expensive tool though😮) local bike man did that job for 10€, shout out to Fahrrad beckers in MG!

Please give link of the tool( amazon or flipkart)

What brakes are you planning for this build? If they're cantis, what cable hanger for the front? I kept thinking the steerer is too short for a hanger on a spacer in the headset stack.

Cable guide is integrated on the arch/bridge of this fork

Where do you get the tool to do that???

[@atboy4342]

I borrowed from a friend. Cyclus and park tools sell one but it’s relatively expensive

Can I thread a 1 1/8 threadless fork?

[@atboy4342]

Thats exactly what I did in the video….

[@nzo_6543]

​@@atboy4342Oh thank you, silly me, I'm actually doing this to make my fixed gear fork which is 1 1/8 threadless, and I bought a 1 1/8 threaded headset. Thank you and God bless.

[@atboy4342]

Surely it would be much simpler, cheaper to buy a threadless headset instead of this process?@@nzo_6543

@@atboy4342 I already did used a threadless setup but i wanted more of a classic look.
