Cutting down a steerer tube...

My lbs has the baddest tool for cutting fork steerers. It's kind of a V-shape, has a little circular blade on one end of the V. You put the steerer in the tool and turn a knob to clamp the blade onto the steerer. You then turn the tool until it feels like it's coming loose, and when this happens you tighten the knob again. You repeat this until it's cut through the fork. I was surprised how quickly it cut through a steel steerer. And it was smooth as fuck! I'll post a pic tomorrow unless anyone knows what tool I'm on about in which case they might be able to post a pic...

Yep, pipe cutters - got one for £8 at my local DIY place -
look like this (don't know why this one is so expensive)

Perfect straight cut, no need to file off burrs or anything. Use it for chopping your bars too...
