Thank you Rev for your response. As to having a job...now that is a novel concept. I have one too. I stand by what I wrote. A total of two responses? Many different time zones and walks participate on the board Rev and many of whom have jobs and incidentally some have a fair degree of Campy experience. Few rival your bicycle knowledge and an an even smaller subset are willing to help which was my point. You have great expertise and I always appreciate your advice. A further tip if you haven't tried it to remove Campy covers is to push the Ergo lever pivot pins out and let the levers hang by their respective cables. That way the covers can come off the front more readily. A good tip you provided on adding some lubricant to the covers. My only concern there would be ingress of any product into the shifter mechanism. A bit of heat will also contribute to cover pliability.
Cheers,
George
