I just dug up Sheldon's reply to a similar querry I had a while back:

This is not a question of compatibility, I trust and hope. Not the
Dura-Ace
Vs. Ultegra issue.
The rear deraillure is a Sachs New Success.
Is there a set up trick issue that I haven't figured out?


The casting that mounts into the handlebar has a square fitting. The
adaptor bushing of the shifter has a matching square hole. You may have
it rotated 90 degrees or 180 degrees from the correct orientation.
