Carbon Steer Tube ?

<< My Serotta F2 fork, made by Reynolds, has a carbon steer tube. The metal insert in the top which
functions as a star nut in this carbon application has come unglued. What type of epoxy should I use
to reattach this to the steer tube?

JB Weld. I thought that Alpha Q were the ones with the glued in insert, now made by True Temper??

Availability note: JB Weld is easily enough found at your local Home Depot.

It is true the Alpha Q forks do use a epoxied metal insert. However the Serotta F2, by Reynolds,
does also. In any event I reglued the insert yesterday per Serotta's instruction. We used the samed
epoxy, whose named I failed to get from the LBS, that is used on the True Temper Alpha Q forks.
