I'm asking this, because I very vaguely remember reading something about
Shimano's 7 speed rapidfire levers having and extra detent?
I've got a pair of brand-new, never used, Shimano XT brake and rapidfire
shifters - from around early 90s vintage - the push-push ones, no gear
indicator. I got them to go on a 7 speed rear (bike got stolen before I got
a chance to use them).
My current MTB has an 8 speed rear, and the rapidfire shifter has gone bad
(slips when there should be friction, cable is OK and free running, I
already "fixed" it a couple of years back by doing the whole flushing it
with WD-40 and leaving overnight, but that won't do the trick, now)., so I
was wondering if anybody remembers what I vaguely recall reading about
Shimano shifters?
