2 bike shops said they couldn't fix it.

Yep, mine are ST-3400(just found the mark on the side). However, it's a 3 speed front derailleur (Sora). I don't mind getting rid of the small inner ring.

Hi, my right shifter has given up on me. I can't find a direct replacement for the easiest solution and so it's probably cheaper to just buy a set (any type Tiagra, 105 etc) to replace the current one except that might affect the current set-up I have, which is 3X9 Tiagra rear mech, Sora front mech.
Pic of the current one attached - can't find a model number on it though.
Advice would be appreciated. Cheers.

Hi, the bike shop (Decathlon and Halfords) said they couldn't fix the shifter (see pic) and I'd need a replacement.
It's the right shifter/lever for the rear Tiagra mech.
Presumably something similar on ebay would be suitable replacement it but I'm always 2nd guessing this stuff. Any advice, cheers.

Thanks for advice. I'll certainly consider it.
I'm wondering if, post-lockdown, there's been a general increase in this type of behaviour because of more traffic on the roads and irate people.
In spite of being careful on the roads, there's always an X factor but that's the risk one takes I guess.
Couldn't agree more about complexity of modern bikes. I bought my current bike for 200 quid on FB but now I can't use it cos of aforementioned problem, which'll cost me X amount to repair. Ho hum..que sera...I've found a 2nd hand set elsewhere now. Thx.
