I have Shimano 105 flight deck shift levers, mated to Shimano 105 rear
derailleur on a touring bike. Recently, when pushing the right hand (rear
derailleur) shift lever to the left in order to shift from a smaller to a
larger rear sprocket it often requires two pushes - the first push is very
loose and then it finally catches and increases tension.

It seems to me this might be due to a gummed up or sticky rear derailleur
cable but I'm not sure. Has anyone else experienced this and know a fix?

After ensuring the inner wire and housing are nbot the culprit, a flush
with the STI repair kit, WD-40 followed by a spray lube may bring it
around. But if not...there are two types of STI, those that have failed
and those that will..Campagnolo ERGO and a Campag rear der will solve
your problems..no more tired and confused shifters.
