I'm building up a Yeti 575 and received the frame, forks and a bunch of parts yesterday.
The LBS I bought the stem, frame and forks cut the steerer tube and installed the star nut for me; but, I'm a bit concerned they've cut the steerer too short. I was going to run a couple of spacers, but with the Chris King headset (Sotte Voce no threadset) and Race Face Dues XC stem the steerer tube is 12mm short of the top of the stem, which is 40mm height.
I definitely won't be able to run any spacers, and am concerned the top (of two) stem bolts may not provide enough grip to the steerer tube. Should I take the forks back, or will it be ok so long as everything is done up nice and tight?
