Broken ergo lever paddle

The lever behind the brake lever on my Mirage ergos has snapped :-( So I'm
stuck in middle ring until I can get something sorted.

Anybody got a spare/bust left hand ergo lever? (bust is fine as long as it's
not the big flappy gear lever :-) )

Dead easy to repair your existing lever.
Take it off, with cable if need be, if you need to use the bike, then
set your deraileur with the limit screws to keep it on the ring you
want.

Take the lever apart, and see which spring has broken. Probably best to
change all the springs when you take it apart, costs you around £30. I'm
not sure who keeps the parts in now, it used to be Mercian in Derby, but
I think someone else now keeps the best range, they are also in Derby
from what I remember. A Google should point you the right way.

See the diagram, and info he

Really easy, if a little fiddly.

That's what I'm hoping :-)

Springs are still fine - it's the actual lever which has snapped. 27 quid
for a replacement :-(

Thanks for the encouragement. Part of the idea of getting a spare bust one
was to have one to practice on first.

The Campy site has all the spare part info.
