Help!

Broke the inside arm of an Ultegra 6510 STI left hand shifter. Should I just ****can it, or is it in any way fixable?

You are killing me here. Hate to replace it if I can find someone that could take it apart and put in another arm. I have one I could take apart for the arm, just not willing to try it myself. Oh well.

I have to admit that is what I was expecting, but hate to spend the money on replacing it. Guess that goes with the problem. Thanks

Hillbasher: This guy https://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=100856572916 claims to be able to repair most Shimano STI shifters. It might be worth a try.
