Cheers @si_mon628 !
New grips and tyre fitted but it’s now a bit wet outside. Shifter spring also transplanted from a dead 10-speed X0 shifter to my 9-speed X0.
Random. I’d never really liked the way this 9-speed X0 shifter shifted. It always felt a bit vague for what was their top end product. I don’t think that spring has ever been in there, even when I had the shifter on my Rudy Project mtb. Now it clicks and shifts perfectly.
And then the mind wanders. I went for 9-speed because it was prettier than the newer 10-speed one was. It looks like the ratchet might be interchangeable and now I’m wondering if a 10-speed upgrade inside the better looking 9-speed shifter body would work...
