Hope this is the right place to ask, bought an early 90's Raleigh Yukon that has a 25.4 quill diameter stem. Seems pretty much impossible to buy a stem with that quill diameter that isn't gross, is shimming the steerer from 25.4 to 22.2 a bad idea? I feel like if I use thread locker and make sure the shim covers the full length of the stem I should be fine. Am I dumb?
