We've been fortunate enough not to have had too much go wrong with our shifters over the years, but, it does happen. As they're one of the most complex components and also really open to damage from crashing and the elements, it pays to know how to service them.

This video is inspired by an audience request – let us know the maintenance videos that you'd like to see down in the comments!
