^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I assume you mean "Klein 1 1/16". In that case the shim would have to have
negative thickness.
What are you talking about?!?! ARE YOU NUTZ?
1/16 is less than 1/8
The shim would have thickness. As for finding the shim, dunno.

The OP forgot the first "1" in the "1 1/16'."

Yup $6.50
May have to shorten it a bit.

Not so much NUTZ as ignorant. I thought Matt was trying to put a 1 1/8"
stem into a 1 1/16" headtube.

Matt: Don't know why everyone's giving you such a bad time on this one. Yes,
Klein makes a shim that does the trick, runs about $7 if I recall correctly.
Should be available from your local dealer (although most likely they'll
have to special order it for you). Sorry I don't have the part # handy, but
if you run into trouble let me know and I can find it, and confirm they're
still available.
