Maybe a silly question but what is the max recommended bar width on a carbon fork/carbon steerer. Currently my bars are 800mm and need to be cut. I like a wide bar but the LBS said they may damage the steerer as at present there is quite a lot leverage and the fork slightly flexes side to side. I know they are cut down for comfort to fit the rider but I am quite tall and like a wide bar. I am a bit worried as the forks cost quite a bit. Any info?
