Um, my Trek520, yes, the US built one (says so on the crooked sticker on the chainstay
) came with an uncut steerer tube. My son's GiantOCR2 came with an uncut steerer tube. Uncut steerer tubes are the norm here in Australia, though you do have to tell the shops not to cut them down because many do it automatically.
