Fell over on the road bike yesterday. Was going through some dirt(stupid of me) and took a small tumble.
No big deal I thought. Nothing bent but some dirt in/on the cassette shifter.
Went for a ride today and it will not down shift.
Took the bike to the LBS and they worked on it for about 15 minutes to no avail.
So now I need a new shifter.
WTF ....just some dirt in the think. You cannot see from the outside that it is even scratched.
WTF this stuff is fragile.
