MCB builds with a 25.4 steerer so one would expect a stem size of 22.2
wonder if your measurement may be due to deformation
verify that opening in locknut not smaller than opening in steerer
have never heard of them employing .833 for example
should you have an .833 stem in your parts bins you could give it a test fit...
you need to hear from our
