I feel like I'd like some shims in my Tiagra shifters to make it slightly easier to brake. But all I can seem to find online are ones that fit 105/Ultegra.

Any idea on where I can pick some up or can the Specialized 105/Ultegra ones be 'bodged' to fit?

The v lovely people at Brixton Cycles found me some Tiagra shims (both sizes) today - and all for a voluntary donation to their beer fund. They also helpfully explained how to fit them so looking forward to seeing what difference it makes.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
