Out riding last week, went to change into the big ring, shifter moved mech, chain moved, released lever, no click and chain dropped back into the little ring. Now I can't get it to hold the outer ring at all,many know about these things?

Cheers

Think it might be knackered. Happened to mine and short of wedging a stick in the front mech, there wasn't much I could do.

Check Merlin, I got a replacement for £30!

Same happened to my wife's 105 on her cx bike, I replaced it with a new one. Stripped the old one and there was a bit broken inside

You may get cheap single left hand STI'a if you search about.

Only 'cheap' shifters I can see are Ultegra DI2, but they would end being very expensive.........
