Jeremy Sycip has been in business for right about 30 years custom building frames.

He's repaired everything under the sun at this point, I have full confidence that he'll do it right and is aware of the inherent risks of heating up epoxy. He knows infinitely more than I do so I won't even attempt to tell him what to do aside from how long I want the steer and threaded or threadless.
As long as you are sure!! I only say this because I have, in the past, not fully communicated my concerns with framebuilders I had thought of as gods, and been burned as a result. Lots of people know lots of things, but no one person knows everything. If the framebuilder understands the concern, he shouldn't be pissed off at you for bringing it up. If he doesn't understand, and is still pissed off, run!! This is his business and this is your safety. There's no space for anyone's ego.
