Thanks @Scilly.Suffolk and @mdcc_tester I'm pretty convinced I'm going to go down the shim route. Shimming the bars up from 26-31.8mm would enable me to experiment with the adjustable stem on more than one bike which would be an advantage.
Fixed tt bike is now rideable, I just need some bigger gears and to get the front end lower and longer.

25.8 and 26.0 are effectively the same, the tolerance band on handlebars is pretty broad. Ritchey like to say 25.8, but AFAIK nobody has ever had any trouble mixing and matching their 25.8 with everybody else's 26.0.
