    Ahhh.. bought a Brand X CX dropper (cos it was cheap on ebay) and planned to fit it to my XC HT.
    Miracle of miracles internal dropper routes through the frame bypassing the BB… everything is all working except I then get to fitting the remote and its way too big for the bars…

    Are CX drop bars wider than the ends of MTB bars?
    If the above is correct.. any ideas of ways to bodge?

    Rubber shim or a different lever?

    Yeah, initially thought of wrapping some inner tube … then wondered if some proper shims exist? (like the 35mm to 31.8 you can use on stems?)

    Yup. 23.something vs 22.2mm. Just a wrap or two of electrical tape should sort it?
