The one at 2:23 of the video below (should start at the right time)

I guess it's a reamer of some sort, but not had any luck finding one.

Aaagh. "Deburring" is the word my brain just refused to come up with. Thanks all.

you could do the same job with a file so not really worth while buying a specific tool

and to be honest having a sharp inner edge of a steerer tube is going to do no harm anyway.

resist the temptation to buy shit you dont really need lol

Deburring tool

You can get them on ebay for £6, or £4.50 if you can wait from China.

They are really handy, faster than a file, also for deburring shallow blind holes that are a pain to file.

You can still get the triangular old school scrapers for deburring, but those swivel ones are cheap, handy and fast to use (if you have a use for them).

This is all 100% true, and I agree totally, and will buy it anyway.

And use a file instead.

Everyone should have one of these. Even if you just get a bit of scrap tubing. It's perhaps the single most satisfying tool I ever get to use.

One of these is way faster:

And have the added advantage of looking somewhat amusing when they wear....

You can get an internal/external pipe deburrer as well. (forgot about them, need to go add it to the ebay shopping basket) Has internal/extrernal blades so it can put a nice chamfer on the outside as well, who needs files when you can file another drawer with useful crap.
