Only costs $27 or so.
Its 26.0mm but you can shim.

...or get a 26.0 drop bar as there are more options.

Nice build!
Thanks. The Stem I have is 100mm with a quill length of 150mm. The Dynamic II is 120mm with a quill length of 65mm. That seems rather short. Maybe they count to the max line while my current one does not. At the moment, I have been looking at the Nitto Technomic, but may wait till I find a used one since I have to wait for the desired bars anyway.

Ironically, I wanted 25.4 bars as I already had a stem. However, that stem I ended up not using and purchased another. The only reason left for me to stay at 25.4 would be to easily move the bar to a 1 1/8" steerer bike in the future. I forgot about the idea of a shim to make 26 clamp bar work with 25.4 bars. That opens up more stem options.
