Noisy Dura-Ace dual control shifters?
Hello,
I recently upgraded the brake levers/shifters on my race-only bike from Ultegra to Dura-Ace (the Ultegras are going on my training bike). They were the same price as the Ultegra shifters at Chucksbikes.com ($189). I like them a lot. They are smoother because they use bearings instead of bushings ala the Ultegra version. The only problem is that they are noisy like the older model of the Ultegra shifters (the old 6500 model as opposed to the newer, quieter 6510 model). They rattle a lot when going over rough pavement. What gives? Is there a way to fix this? Its driving me bananas TIA, - Boyd S. |

boyd- They rattle a lot when going over rough
pavement. What gives? Is there a way to fix this? BRBR May need to seat your brake housing into the lever..Take off the tape securing the housing(bar tape off)and squeeze the brake vigoropusly a few times. Not uncommon for the brake lever to move on rough roads casuing this rattling. Another solution farther down this post- Campagnolo(?)
