UK source for Campagnolo spare parts

[Tim]

Can anyone recommend a source for Campagnolo spare parts in the UK? I
am specifically interested in rebuilding a Chorus 9 speed RH ergo, and
am after the indexing ratchet RE-EC063 and springs RE-EC209 and
RE-EC215.

I have so far identified three sources:
- buy a Mirage 9 lever and take it apart
- import from the USA (http://www.brandfordbike.com/)
- paying my LBS to service the lever (they are strangely unwilling to
let me buy the bits)

Thank you for you suggestions

Ratchet will be expensive and is highly unlikely to need replacing unless
upgrading pre 2001 lever to current spec.

Not a bad idea if ratchet is required, especially considering new Ergos
are supplied with hoods, cables and stops -- each worth quite a few
pounds.

OR give me a call or email to me. BTW, unless you want to upgrade,
there is no need to replace the shift disc/index ratchet. In the 14 or
so years I have been mucking with ERGO, I have never seen a ratchet
wear out.
Branford should be ashamed if they are rec. that you change a worn out
disc.

I would thoroughly recommend a guy called Jeff at Mercian Cycles in
Derby. They've serviced my 2 sets of spare 8 speed ergos recently.
