    I’ve got some of these and they made a big difference for me, if that helps. I wouldn’t have said I have particularly small hands though!

    I have some which fit latest 105/Ultegra (5700/6700)- won’t fit previous versions. You’re welcome to them if suitable.

    As above, you need to get the correct type for your shifters. The Specialized ones are for the older 105 STIs. The newer Shimano ones fit the 6700/5700 STIs. I didn’t used to bother but I’ve found them great for off-roading.

    I have some – that I think may have come from some Sora levers, so if you’re not on raceday kit, let me know. 🙂

    Get some drop bars that are designed for use with small hands such as cinelli little wing.

    Do these shims just push into place? or do you have to take the lever apart?

    No dismantling required.
