It’s been mentioned in this thread already, but worth repeating: considering how high Boscos rise, just be careful you don’t cut off too much, just in case you want to swap bars later for something that might require a bit more stack.On Jan 19, 2023, at 6:39 PM, Ryan Frahm wrote:Looks great, so

Many of you likely already know what I was referring to earlier but figured
I'd follow up and at least provide a link for the parts I mentioned as
interim solutions before cutting my threadless steering column and
inserting the start nut
Expanding collet compression plug like this:
Personally, I've cut only a few of my own steerer tubes and being tall I've
even needed to leave several stock length anyway, but one trick I've since
discovered and applied to my last threadless build was using one of the
expandable compression bolts/top cap assemblies meant for carbon forks
Richard,
Thanks for starting this thread.
I'm building a Gus, too, and judging by how long the steerer tube is
unmounted I think it's likely I'll cut mine down to a more desirable length.
When I make the steerer cut, I'm going to leave enough minimum length above
headset stack to allow for
