I had this problem with the silver shifter on the downtube, no matter how much I tightened it.
I finally traced the problem to the fact that the square-hole washer that sits on the frame was slightly too thick for my shifter boss. I sanded it down a little bit with a Dremel tool, and that solved the problem. On Wed, Sep 7, 2011 at 2:05 PM, mho <mho...@gmail.com> wrote: > I have the downtube Silver shifter.
