Lever spacer help.

Post by Gari »

I have tried to get a set of these from my LBSs to no avail. One tried to get some through Madison but they(Madison) weren't sure if they could get them etc, apparently showed little/no interest in sourcing them! The other LBS just didn't know(care?!)
So anyone here know of a source for the little crescent shaped spacers for these levers, LX though I think they fit all the Shimano range? or a simple solution/bodge?
Seems such a waste to have to dispose for the sake of a small part that they still make, apparently, but that I can't source. Thanks, out.

They fit in the lever end to stop that cable holder moving, set lever pull.

Thanks folks.
I have the part numbers, problem is Madison can't find them as they think maybe there part number is different from the Shimano one, and don't know what it may be so can't really do a search.
As I said, I think there is a fair bit of CBA going on here as they are such small parts, not worth the effort etc!!!

A wanted post on Retrobike might be able to source you some Gari.
Worth a shot.
