bar end shifter indexing
Hey all,
After a bit more of your fantastic advice. I have some Shimano 9-speed bar end shifters on my Dawes Galaxy. When using them in indexed mode, I only get 5 clicks when changing the rear derailleur. Somewhere in the middle of the range, I am still able to change into every gear, but it doesn't click into place..so it is sort of semi-friction in the middle. Is this normal? And if not, is there anything I can do about it? I haven't seen any adjustment of the clicks/indexing. ? Thanks! Tom |

Try loosening the cable at the rear deraileur and see if you get 9 clicks at the lever. Ken. |

It fits a few ways, but only works properly in one. -- --- Marten Gerritsen INFOapestaartjeM-GINEERINGpuntNL www.m-gineering.nl |

And if not, is there anything I can do about it? It sounds as though the "lever boss cover" has been installed incorrectly. See the diagram he http://www.paul-lange.de/produkte/sh...Sl_BS77_EV.pdf Part number 2 can be installed in four different orientations. To work correctly, the protrusion on the side facing the lever should point downwards, as in the diagram. James Thomson |

Mine seems to be giving me two per gear, so perhaps I can donate a few of my spare clicks ;-) -- Dave Larrington http://www.legslarry.beerdrinkers.co.uk Never tie your shoelaces in a revolving door. |
