I was just installing my new fork and before I cut the steerer tube I wanted to make sure this looked good. I wasn’t sure if I had to install some spacers below the top crown so there wasn’t so much or the top tubes sticking up past the crown? - See attachemt
Thanks guys. I was pretty sure it was right but its hard to take a hack saw to a $1500 fork. By the way, what works best for cutting the steerer. Ive used a pipe cutter for clean cuts on seat posts. SMT - Here is the other photo:
Looks good as long as all the headset pieces are under the top crown.
And you can adjust the height of the front end by moving both crowns up and down on the stanchions, of course making sure that you have at least the amount of travel the fork has, and a few mm extra for clearance stuff.

because they don't want you to move it too low and then blame fox. if it wasn't supposed to be moved, it would have been a pressfit like the old marzo forks....

Pipe cutter works, saw guide and a hacksaw work real well too.
Looks fine. You may want to leave a ltitle bit extra so you can play around with spacers.
