[Closed] Shimano XT i Spec mount help

the mounting hardware comes with the shifter, not the brake

I feared you might say that...I'll have a look for it in the box...

Right OK I've not got it. Any ideas where I can order one from. I go to France on Thursday so need to get something sorted ASAP!

Thanks

The shifters don't actually include the adaptor. You'll have to buy an adaptor or a new shifter if you absolutely need ispec.

I've got an i spec b shifter and brake. Just need the adapter then. How would buying a new shifter help if they don't come with the mounts?

Because you can buy shifters with the adaptor already attached.

If you've definitely got ispec b shifters you should have both types of connector with the shifter. Not sure what superficial is getting at - op has ispec shifters by sounds of it?

I've just installed an i spec shifter to ispec a brake on mine, I'm looking now what parts do you actually need? All three in the middle, nut and 2 bolts? I've used the larger bolt on mine, I've found the smaller bolt but can't find the nut. If I can find it I'll stick it in the post to you. I've only got a single though, 1x10.

Or your lbs might have the bits kicking about?

Sorry I'm talking rubbish. I misread the OP. Those bits should have come with the shifter.

Be careful, both CRC and Wiggle tried to sell me ispec-A as ispec-B, bike-discount DID sell me one and my LBS did the same. Half of the retailers have no idea what the hell the difference and combo is.

However, the fastenings (not the mount, its either ispec-B or it isn't) should be with the shifter.
