The SRAM MRX rear shifter I had been using on my commuter broke. So I replaced it with MRX Comp. But the action on the Comp seems so light. I just look at the thing and it upshifts! OK, not really, but it upshifts way too easy and I find myself making a lot of unintended shifts. I 'spose I'll end up taking it apart to see if I can get a little more solid shifting by adjusting the spring clip, but I thought I'd check here first.

Well, I finally got around to taking the shifter apart. The plastic ring holding the spring clip was broken! On a brand new shifter!
