  • If you're happy that there's enough quill left in that stem then I bet it'd be a lot easier to find a shorter quill bolt/get the thread cut further up than to team out the interior of the steerer.

  • You're right, thing is I don't know if it's in far enough, it looks like quite a conservative amount of quill actually goes in even after I cut it down drastically. I've not ever seen a quill with that short an insert.

    Will probably get the thread on the bolt extended anyway, this is where it sits in the bike now

    If the mark above the circle on the section you've cut off is the minimum insert line then I'd say it looks like you currently have more than the minimum suggested insertion.
