  1. Hi all,
    Just got back from a ride where a rattle has developed in the right hand 10
    sp durace lever. very noticeable on the rough roads around here and
    certainly noticeable when i bounce the front of the bike. I took the name
    cap off and spotted a retained nut but didn't attempt to lever out the
    prongs and tighten it up. Anybody had a similar experience. I know the
    earlier ultegra and 105 levers were prone to rattle but I thought this
    wouldn't happen with the new Dura Ace. The levers have less than 1600 km
    use. A possible warranty job??
    Any opinions or fixes greatfully received.
    Cheers

  2. WIth new leversets in boxes, I remember seeing a little rubber band
    that might help stop the 'rattle'. If I recall, it's about 8mm tall
    and rectangular to fit around the main lever.

    ask the bike shop you bought the lever/bike from ?
