Hi,

anyone know what size this screw is and where I'd get one - mine must have come loose and fallen off

Thanks,

Johnny

Is that a di2 shifter? Got a feeling I lost one on mine but have just been using it without the screw. Cover hasn’t gone anywhere. Not sure why they have to make the screw so fiddly - would be much better as an Allen bolt rather than a screwdriver head....

I had the same thing. Managed to scrounge something that fit from an old laptop hard drive. Take the one off the other side for a reference

cheers guys - I'll do what you suggest Jonny - seems extreme to have to pay £9 when it's only the screw I need.

and cheers for the link, Scotroutes - pity they don't mention the size 🙂
