Hi, thanks for the reply.
I dont have a pair yet i have seen them on ebay all i was thinking was replacing them with the same numbers on the shifts, like for like.
My wifes shifters have 3-left 6-right so i was going to buy the same?

let me know if i cannot then i will just replace the gripshift, if i can find one cheap enough, as its the right one whats broken.
