I damaged my left shift lever when I crashed my Kona recently. It had

difficult to shift onto the big ring, so I brought it to my LBS. They

tried to shift it
while riding, it was nigh on impossible to get it to go onto the
larger chainwheel.
The tech at the LBS thinks the only option is to replace the lever
(three weeks to
get the part!!).
What broke or bent in the lever that would explain the difference in
shifting? Do any
of you know of other options?
What sort of shift lever is it?
Sorry, didn't notice the thread title.
I wonder if this might be helpful:

But of course, I haven't had that problem.
It might very well, thanks. I will keep it in mind.
