Yup. I've very barely managed with some welded Salsa-style stems + coin method + 45min of cursing, but the last time the lady friend and I tried to get a pair onto a forged quill for her tourer we bent the clamp badly and it wouldn't close again.
Turns out it was a 25.4 clamp but I'd nonetheless be a bit worried about getting compacts onto proper quills.
yea I guess it's one of those things where I wouldn't be too surprised if it worked, but also wouldn't be too surprised if the stem or bars wound up pretty busted up.
