I have bought threadless stems , and they included the split shim to use that on a 1" threadless fork.

Otherwise, they should be available from where you get the stem ..



FYI .... 0.125 " is 1/8" _ 1.25" is one and a quarter inch _ 31.8 the metric equivalency. (31.75, to be more accurate)

Thanks for pointing out my measurement typo. Took a while, but pretty sure I finally understand your suggested BBB BHP-20/21 setup. I went to the BBB site. Took a screen shot of their manual. It illustrates the 1" to 1.125" shim (if needed).
