When I downshift from the large outside cog to the smaller inside cog the shifter "snaps" into place ie. it is not smooth but feels as though it is under tension and then the tension is released which results in the "snapping" sound. Up shifting is not a problem. The sound comes from the shifter - not the front cog.
According to the bike shop the fault is with the shifter itself and I will need to replace it.
I notice I can buy a shifter on ebay for a reasonable price and was wondering what is involved in the installation. Is anybody aware of an easy to follow self help guide? Also what tools are required ie. are specialised tools needed?
