So ive got these 9 speed levers laying around.
The look great, close to perfect but the shifting without cables attached is weird.
If im in highest gear (biggest to smallest cog) on the right lever i get the 8 clicks when going down to lowest gear without issues at all. s
However when going from low to high (still without cable installed) i only get 5 or 4 and sometimes 6 till its at the highest gear. If im really carefull sometimes i get the 8 clicks.. Im guessing this is the campy shifting thingy that lets you upshift more than 1 at each time that gets in play even when im trying to go 1 gear at the time. This also seem to happen more frequent in the first clicks rather than the later where they seem to go 1 at the time.
Now, is this a g spring issue (just heard about those) or is this just the way the right campy lever behaves when theres no cable attached to put tension on the mechanisms involved?
Ive never used them or had them installed as i bought them used. My mechanic said they would be fine but im thinking bout selling so id like to know whats up.
Any help appreciated.
Thx
