Rebuilding Campy Levers

Yup, several "online" sources are available. The best are probably
those at Andy Muzi's Yellow Jersey:

"Official" Campagnolo Ergo Service Manual:
http://www.yellowjersey.org/ergo1.html

He also has a link to Paul Southworth's excellent writeup too:
http://www.yellowjersey.org/ergo_ps.pdf

Don't forget, the same manuals can be used for BOTH Ergo 9 AND 10 speed
shifters!

Lennard Zinn's article gives a couple good pointers to supplement
Southworth's article.

the Barnett Manual has the full step by step procedure.

How much does the Barnett Manual cost? Is it available "online?"

looks about $80 at amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1931382298/002-0386063-7393666

I got it as a gift a couple of years ago and it's great, at least as useful as "The Bike Bag Book"
was when I was 14. 🙂

Dear BFD,

I haven't seen the Barnett Manual, but unless its "step by step
procedures" are really good or offers more than anything else out
there, why would anyone need to buy this manual to rebuilt their ergo
levers when there are at least 3 sources, including Campagnolo's
"official" service manual, available FOR FREE?

Kind of my opinion too. Not sure how much more step by step the
Barnett's can be than the step by step directions given by Southworth
and the few useful supplements from Zinn. The rear Ergo overhaul given
by Southworth and Zinn also does well for the front Ergo. I suppose if
someone is truely clueless and mechanically incompetent and has no
common sense, then a super detailed step by step procedure, if the
Barnetts does this, would be good. But someone who is mechanically
clueless, etc. would not even consider rebuilding Ergo levers.
