Concerns my wife's bike - she's got 105 triple stuff. The shifters are as stiff as can be and she just hasn't got the strength to make a good smooth shift. I've never had to deal with triple chainring stuff before, so I don't know the answers to my questions. 1. Should triple shifting be more difficult than two? 2. Is it the low end 105 gear, or is there something wrong with this one? Its not hard for me to shift cleanly but it sure isn't like my Dura Ace bikes. 3. Can I take my spare D/A two speed shifter and replace the 105 triple shifter? They appear, from the action at least, work the same way. But I don't know, this triple stuff is new to me. Thanks.
