@lolo I've been experimenting with making flutes out of alu tubing with mixed results. The fangled star nut sounds like a good idea, but I can't slide this directly into the steerer as my rack attaches via the bridge. This means the thread going into the star nut would prevent the rack attaching at the brake bridge as it would be in the way. I think a fangled star nut is the way forward but inserted into an alu tube/flute as it were, should allow micro adjust and keep the fork bridge free.
@edscoble did send a few emails directly to Halo prior but obviously wasn't asking the right questions! Just glad it's getting sorted and don't have to look at cable pull ratio charts for when I was planning on mixing shifters/derailleurs.
