I just mount the fork in the frame, install the stem with correct spacers, then hammer the **** outta the excess steerer until it bends over, firmly securing everything in place.

And here I was thinking that I was the only one utilizing such a high-tech method.

No doubt, I too like the kotter pin method.

What do machine shops do when they cut tubing with precision? A lathe?? I had my stanctions cut (the Stratos S7 fork is crazy tall for a 7" travel fork) and I noticed the ends of the tubes were a tad bit flared. It was barely noticeable so it might of been all in my head or maybe the way the edges felt. Either way, I filed them down a touch to make them smoothe.

You are on dangerous ground. Tread carefully, least the lord of the intraweb takes notice and decides to end your pitiful existence. He travels in stealth, and none but the faithful shall know his true identity. Cower, mortal.
