To cut or not to cut
I'm reasonably happy with the fit of my swept-bar Vaya build but the heavily angled long stem (120mm 25 deg) leaves about three inches of steerer just begging to be cut off. It looks ugly.
All things being equal, am I better to cut the steerer (maybe leaving half an inch or so for flexibility) or invest in a new 0 degree stem that will take the handlebar out to where it is now without the need for above-the-stem spacers?
Other than appearance (I think cutting it and keeping the angled stem would look better) are there any considerations?
