richie,

is this a trick question?

the answer is always the same: measure twice and cut once!

I always install the headset first, and after assembly, trim the steerer after marking the cut point on the threads.

Unless the frame you are installing the headset in needs to be sent MY way....then just box it and i'll install it here ;-)

richieissimo asked: What is the "correct" dimension to cut the fork to on a Nuovo Record track headset. i recall it as slightly less than a road - which was, i believe, 42mm.
