So, the Profile Stoker Bar is too big to make it through the one-piece billet aluminum Co-Motion piece and too small to be tightened into the 31.8 mm Bike Stem I ordered. Looks like I need a 2-piece bike stem with a smaller diameter.
There are shims to allow use of a 26.0 bar with a 31.8 stem. I'm using one for our Profile stoker bar.
