    Bars, seatposts – anything to worry about?

    e.g. is a facemask a good idea to avoid breathing in any particles?

    Will any sharp saw blade do it?

    Any particular technique required?

    Wear a mask, keep the blade & component damp. Use a fine tooth count (high tpi) blade, measure 4 times, cut once 😉 Oh, and wear gloves.

    Wrap tape around the area you are going to cut. Then mark up & cut through it. Mask is not optional.

    as everyone above has said, nice fine blade (high tpi), wear a mask, mark up using masking tape and you’ll be fine.
