I,ve used the same trick with the seat post shim. I hate knowing that it's in there but like snoopy72 said it is more important to prevent cracking.

You need to check this measurement especially if you have a creaking sound when out on a ride

Since the difference is 2.6mm, that would require a material thickness of 1.3mm
I'm pretty sure I used a 25mm to 22.2mm shim and it worked fine and I've built several Pro-Stars. :daumenhoch:
