Re: Cut the fork Mechanically, you need space between the steerer & the top cap because that's how you compress the steerer column. You dont need much, but you do need a few mm otherwise you can't compress the system and you risk having headset play (& catastrophic failure if you really build stuff like a monkey).
Some top caps prevent you from having a spacer above (VB for eg).
Some expander plugs dont have a lip on top of the steerer column (especially the extra light ones)
However you create that space, you need some.

Re: Lightcarbon: New LCR017-D (or Yishun R1058-D) I've had to delete a couple of comments over the past couple of days... just a friendly reminder to keep discourse respectful and avoid personal insults and name-calling. Lots of places on the internet to go and talk shit if that's what you want to do, just not here. Thanks.

Re: Seraph Bikes Superlight 836g X68 - Alternative to SL8 Fakes? Chinese seller are not above Chinese law however and this can still be pursed but the question is wether it is will work:

Just to add some context — China does have an official regulatory body that oversees product safety and quality. It’s called the State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) — or in Chinese, 国家市场监督管理总局.

Website: http://www.samr.gov.cn (Chinese only, but Google Translate works fine)

They’re responsible for handling issues like defective products, manufacturing violations, and recalls, including in cases where a product poses a safety risk. While they’re not specifically set up for international consumers, it is technically possible to submit a complaint — though you’d need to do it in Chinese or get it translated.

Also, every city in China has its own local market supervision bureau (like a regional SAMR branch), which may be more responsive depending on where the seller or factory is based — e.g. Shenzhen or Xiamen.

Of course, whether they act on it is another matter, especially for a one-off case, but Chinese businesses generally don’t want regulatory trouble. Just mentioning SAMR in your communications can sometimes be enough to make a seller take a claim more seriously.

If nothing else, it’s good to know there is an official channel beyond just PayPal or the seller’s goodwill.
