:D I am going to switch from bar end shifters (currently installed) back to the Campy ergo shifters that are currently attached to conventional drop handle bars. I know how to get the habndle bars on, but need some help in re-attaching the cabling.

Any hints where I can get some good, clear instructions would be greatfully accepted. (I luv pictures)

THX in advance -

:eek: PS - If this posting looks vaguely .... I have no earthly idea why I originally posted this in the "Road Bike" forum. I've a feeling that this forum is way more appropriate.

The Campy manual (http://www.campagnolo.com/pdf/7225251_Ergopower_0307.pdf) is pretty complete. It does not have color pics but the drawings are decent.

The park tool shifter (http://www.parktool.com/repair/readhowto.asp?id=117) section does not cover Ergo specifically but it does have good explanations that you only need to transfer to the Ergo cabling/mounting style.

Campy's web site has .pdf of all of their component owner's manuals. I'd try there as they are pretty well illustrated.

I looked at the Campy manual. I can even learn some languages while doing the install. :D

Thanks for the guidance>
