So my njs rat was hit by an icecicle over the winter and the dent was too big to be acceptable aesthetically. I didn’t wanna wait for a proper clamping block to come in the mail and I don’t have any friends with hole saws or lathes SO: I used a 31.8-25.4 handlebar shim and a stem to clamp it out. Not bad, the dents are definitely reduced and I’ve saved a week and ¥2,000. You can see a little crease where the edge of the shim was but this is a rat so that’s fine.
