If the soda can isn't thick enough, I've used soup cans, a little thicker. I used a tin snip which created its own lip at the top edge (could be a dull tin snip ;^) ) to keep the shim from dropping down.

Anyone know of a thin shim or have recommendations (other than cranking down the binder bolt) for using a 27.2 seatpost in a frame built for 27.4?

Thanks for any help,
