You can but the cheaper cutters may struggle a bit & leave it flared - nothing that a file can't sort out though
cool. I'll probably finish off the jump bike that I started a year ago! Now it's my only bike and all *cry*
Pipecutter, £8 in B&Q piece of pish
He's right you know
My pipe cutter failed dismally on 853 forks! The cutting wheels are replaceable though so it's back cutting copper pipes again!
If you need to ask, step away from the push cycle!

i have a specialist bike tool, think it's made by park tools. Designed to clamp the fork steerer and then the tool gets clamped into the vice. Gives a good clean cut with a hacksaw.
yep, pipe cutter from B&Q
Bought this yesterday from B&Q and worked like a dream

whats that?
wont a hammer work? they usually work well on these things
will that pipe cutter work with a steel steerer...i have one that could do with a trim.
Yup, i shaved off a few mm's perfectly on my steerer tube coz my LBS idiot used a hack saw and it was a real cowboy job. He will be getting a visit off me in the next few days where im going to throw the cut piece back at him.
£8 well spent
