Will cost you a chocolate can collect in Centurion if this will work for you.

Hi All Trust Everybody’s Well, I recently decided I would like to go internal cable shifters as I would like my cockpit to look clean & more tidy.

Im currently running a dura ace 7800 groupset and I was told it’s compatible with all shimano 10s shifters except the new tiagra 

I would like to know how much the 10s shifters are going for?? (Haven’t seen any for sale) & if there’s any advice or tips 

Thanks! 🤙🏽

Need a newer gen one of these 

 

mine just can't get around the downtube of my bike and the bike has worked itself loose now twice.

 

luckily i use a imbi as backup but this needs to be solved.

 

the lock doesn't need to work/be there i just need the arm.

 

Willing to pay 

 

Have posted wanted ad but no bites , pretty please anyone 

To anyone who is interested here you can see why i wanted the updated clamp.

 

Bigger for more surface area grabbing the frame and once in a more closed position there's more room for frame inside rather than around

If memory serves me right they were normally paired with a 'rapid rise' rear derailleur... took a bit of getting used to!

Is there a difference between the Enduro and Epic?

There's a bunch for sale, although mostly Di2 strangely. The Ultegra mechanical set needs new hoods and needs to come down in price IMO.

Please see picture below of the Enduro chainstay

Hi, does anyone have a rear cage/pulley set for a dura ace R9100 rear derailleur please, willing to pay

I have one from my 6800 Ultegra groupset which I swopped out for my OSPW, Not sure if it's compatible. Ask around and let me know.
