Need Confirmation>>>Start Nut install for 2018 Giant TCR Adv. Pro headset
What's up guys.
Just got this 2018 Giant TCR Adv. Pro frameset
in today and got a little careless when removing the fork.
The nut that screws on the bottom part of the bolt (pictured below)
dropped down into the headset and now not sure
if I need to have this nut in the top or middle portion
of the sleeve adapter.
Do I need to hammer this into the middle portion of
the sleeve? Because, I could not screw this tight that
would allow it to center in. The metal sleeve just spins
around when trying to do this.
Any advise would be great! really don't wanna break
anything and get into a jackpot.

correct or wrong way position?

Thats a compression plug, not a star nut.
Star nuts are for aluminum steerer tubes. Compression plugs are for carbon steerer tubes.
Don't hammer anything. A compression plug is not installed using a hammer or with any kind of banging.
Installation is similar across all brands.

Did y'all even watch the video? If that didn't answer your questions then start a new thread for your exact question.
Even if you think the OP's issue is your issue.
