Shimano Revoshift Problem

sageauk · 07-08-2011, 05:09 PM

A few weeks with my new bike with shimano revoshift. The left shifter is not indexed so you have to move several points for it to get the the gear you need.
I happened to move it in a harsh manner (may be) and now it is not locking like it usually click to a position.
when I shift it also seems like it wants to get apart.
What can I do to it?
Can I repair it?

I Opted to purchase the whole unit for circa $20 USD.

Its inside is plastic had broken so didn't get a way to fix that

The new one also broke in one week and got a soldering iron and a paperclip to reinforce the the plastic stopper put it into position again. still using it no problems
