I wonder how you guys do clean up the thread with a locknut, screwed on the steerer before cutting the tube.
Don't you mean the upper (adjustable) cup?
If you take the locknut, you can only screw it on the part of the steerer that you throw away. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me if you want to chase that thread.
More likely to take care of the thread on the good part of the steerer. IMHO this can only be done with a cup, not with a lock nut.
