Poor Quality, not worth any price

The shim I received varied in thickness from .006 to .016 inch. It was not the same thickness from side to side. Although it is true that it would "work" , I choose to throw the one I received in the recycle bin. My bike deserves better. Read full review...

Super thin shim does the job!

I’m very pleased with the quality and performance of this shim. I’m now able to use my 25.4 cafe bars with my 26.0 Cinelli stem. Ten mile inaugural ride and the bars didn’t budge at all. Definitely recommended.Read full review...

It works!

This shim came in the clutch for me to finish my bike build. It just didn't look exactly like the picture. It was curled up. But still worked.

"Miracle-Working Shim"

This shim is the ideal featherweight adaptor for multiple applications. It
creates a snug fit for handlebars, seat posts, clamp-on derailleurs, bells
and other accessories. Attractive and unobtrusive. Easy to trim with tin
snips! Bravo!

Works perfectly

I have a old cannondale mountain bike I’m converting to a hybrid and needed this shim to fit a road bike stem to a mountain bike straight bar. Perfect fit the shin is not too rigid and flexible enough I did not have to take off any components.Read full review...

Shim of the gods.

Just that tiny bit which provides a solid handlebar attachment.

Horrible.

Broke while tying to install and scratched up my new shiny polished handlebars. Awful. Want my money back.

for 6/10mm, cut an aluminum beverage can

$9 for no lip raw finish ~1"x2" tiny rectangle - insufficient for my layback seat post application requiring no play anywhere in the 4" of 26.0 ID seat tube filled with 25.4 post.

seriously, get a can and snips, or pay double for nitto stainless shims.

that being said re product, the retailer did a fine job fulfilling (packed nicely & shipped quickly!) an idiotic overspent purchase of a beer can trimming. so cheesy!
