If the "your clutch spring or internal barrel are worn out", not sure I'd know from a visual inspection, nor what the options are save watching for a replacement set (I think I saw some on For Sale but those are clamp-on and didn't I read they do NOT interchange?)
The bottle of thread locker beckons like it's some controlled substance I'm trying to kick... where's the HotLine I am supposed to call for that particular addition?
The clamp on Do Not interchange with the frame mounted ones, I.e. they’re French after all. Had one of the springs break, they have a little tiny catch on the end, and that can rust and finally break, releasing the pressure, and you are in the smallest cog (of it’s the rear derailleur).
