Rattling Gears

Recommended Posts

matt205xs

my gear linkages are very loose and rattle when changing gear, are they pretty much shot, or is there a way of adjusting them??

 

thanks

sounds as though the plastic cups in the ends of the rods are worn

 

the ones i've had to replace have always fallen off before they developed a rattle though

 

rod length is adjustable, but it won't stop them rattling. i'd be more worried about them coming off - could zip tie them on as a short term fix

they're not hugely expensive from a dealer (about £10-15 ea for the smaller ones)

not sure how much the bigger one is - i need to do mine and haven't checked yet (guessing £20-£30ish?)

 

i think Miles sells uprated ones - maybe pm him to enquire about prices or wait to see if anyone who has bought some spots your thread
