Hi!
I recently purchased a nice used D'fly with full Campy Record components (a very nice combo!). I'd been having troubles with the front derailleur not wanting to (easily) shift to the larger cog. Like, eventually the shift would occur after pushing hard on the Ergo shifter with my index finger, a bunch of chain grinding and/or if I switched to a smaller cog in the rear.
Anyway, at wits end, I brought the bike to my LBS and they told me that I was missing a threaded barrel or "fine tune" adjustment --- typically a twisty thingy at the front or end of the derailleur cable. The LBS did the "best they could" by adjusting the 2 gate screws on the derailleur itself and "manually" fine tuning further by pulling and/or loosening the cable with pliers, but the shifting, while better, still stinks.
Does anyone have any advise? Is there a fine tuning adjustment in the Ergo shifters that perhaps my LBS (and I!) don't know about. My LBS is a TREK / Dura Ace specialist...'nuff said?
Thanks in advance!
