Hm, I believe the clamp of the Cinelli A1 stem is exactly 26mm, at least the papers say so.
The diameter of the bars ditto.
But you´re right, this is not a problem for me anymore. I hope you can figure out how to pass the challenge.
On my previous build I used a 3TTT Status stem with Cinelli Vai bars and it went absolutely smoothly.

No, they don't work 'better' with Nitto stems, they work much worse! Thing is, your Cinelli is 26.4, and Nittos etc are 26.0, so much tighter! What I did with the 'coin trick' is having an actual bolt push the coin, instead of me holding the wrench or whatever. Still was a mess on the hoods area... Anyway, you're already past that problem :)
