Right, the time has come to take the hacksaw to these shiny new forks and cut the steerer to length. But what length?

Generally I set the saddle height so that my leg is pretty much straight at the bottom of the pedal stroke with my heel on the pedal (i.e. a bit bent when on the ball of my foot). Then I set the bars so they are level with the saddle and put a 5mm spacer on top of the stem in case I want to raise it a bit after riding.

Anybody care to suggest an alternative before I get hacking?
