Shim shimmeny

Postby Dynamite_funk » 2 Aug 2015, 12:27pm

Hello all. I'm looking to use an adjustable ahead stem as a tandem stoker stem but require a shim to make it fit the 27.2 seatpost. Any ideas on the shim size I need? Really struggling to get my head around it! :shock:

0.7mm wall thickness, if the stem is an 1-1/8" one.

cheers
