I guess I did not communicate very well. The steer tube is too long so I need to shorten it. All they did was extend the threads further down the tube before I cut it off to the needed length. They did not, nor did I ask them to, mill a slot for the washer nub to slide down to keep the keep the head set tight. I expected to pay like $10-$15 just to have about 2" of threads added. I was so shocked when he stated the price I was actually speechless. I drove 50 miles to get a sore bottom. This was the Bike Peddler in Nashville. The had me by the 'boys' and they knew it. It is my fault for not asking the price. You can bet that I will sure send more business thier way.
Thats way to high, I've had the threads extend further down the tube on a few of my forks at my LBS, the first time it was $20.00, all the rest were no charge, yeah, I'd say they rammed you.
