Mercurial: How to restore after rebase

I've accidentally pulled some changes from the main repo with --rebase parameter.

How do I restore the original repository state from the backup which was created during the rebase?

hg unbundle is used to apply the backup file:

hg unbundle .hg/strip-backup/e64394fd5837-backup.hg

However, this does not remove the new changesets that have been created by the rebase; it is probably a good idea to call hg unbundle from a repo that does not have the rebased changesets (i.e. clone latest version from server).
