Ive asked him and he said he couldn't do it as he has too much on.
I've taken it to my local bike store and they said that the steel was too hard for his cutter to get through and that the only other option would be for an engineer to do it. The engineer quoted me £50 estimate because of the setup charge.
So thats left me with the idea of convertin it to 1 inch ahead. I reckon ill need about 200mm steerer, so the stem would clamp onto about 1cm of thread and the rest would be solid tube.
This sounds ok in my head but want confirmation. The other thing I need is average stem stack height, which I'd assume is around 4-5cm?
Cheers
