Origin8 Fusion Compression Plug
Best reinforcement for cyclists upgrading or maintaining carbon steerer tubes.
This extra-long plug is the insurance policy your carbon steerer tube needs. By extending deep into the fork, it provides critical structural reinforcement right where the stem clamps down. You’ll have to source your own top cap and bolt, but the added peace of mind for your carbon setup is well worth the minor inconvenience.
