It's been cut, stock it comes with a lot of spacers, prob 40mm or more, it's a big stack. I know my fit so I had the shop cut the steerer when they built it.
Have you ever weighed your bike as it sits? I should have mentioned that I am having what I suspect is the beginning of a hip issue. Very minor but I suspect some sort of arthritis. The last time I was out on the CAAD 12 I hit some cobbled type roads and it was not pleasant. I am guessing that the CF frame will be more forgiving. To be clear the AL frame has never been an issue and I have found it to be comfortable. So, it's my changing body and not the AL frame that is at issue. Just hoping I might buy some additional comfort.
