You can file the shifter unit out to get a bit more travel for the cable. Could practise on the LH lever to get your eye in.

You can file the shifter unit...

Could you explain a little more please: I'm struggling to think what you could file that would increase cable pull.

if you file out the end stops on the shifter, you can rotate the lever through a wider range of travel, and if it travels further it can pull more cable in total, no?
