Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Replacing Parts

Anybody got any 105 or RSX shifters for a double 7/8spd set up? Mine are worn out and I need to replace them on the cheap. New bike on the horizon but I wanna keep my old Caad going for a trainer bike/gf's house bike. I've checked Ebay and had limited success.

Also, how difficult is it to rebuild them? Is this something a sort of mechanically inclined DIYer can do? Thanks for any feedback.

Don't have a functional shifter spare, I do have a dead 8 speed, you want it? Rebuilding is pointless as there are no service instructions or spare parts available. It is also a difficult and very fiddly task to assemble and dis-assemble the shifters.

Yeah!!! Can't get any cheaper than FOC plus shipping. Let me know what the cost is to ship and I'll send you a money order or whatever. Thanks.
