retro campy shifters schematic?

Eric · 2003-05-02T03:00:21+00:00

if this isn't on-topic, i don't know what IS... ;-) i won an ebay auction awhile back: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2716798948&category=7295 i have the standard campagnolo NR braze on shift levers which i've just started to replace with the newer auction shifters. my problem is there are more parts with this set of braze on shift levers than the old ones so it isn't a simple case of switching out the older parts for the newer ones. anybody have a schematic drawing of which parts go in which order? or can someone describe installation? there are 2 thin wire-like bronze-colored washers with a wide opening, four wider silver washers with small holes, two saucer like plates with campagnolo inscribed on them (figure these go on the outside), the wire handled bolts, two metal inserts which i figure go into the braze on studs AFTER the levers are installed and of course, the back plates with the lever stops. the four silver wide washers are throwing me a bit, as well as the wire-like smaller ones. i've installed the front deraileur's lever and it seems to be working fine so if no further info comes my way, i'll just duplicate what i did with the front one for the second lever. but if anyone can help confirm this, i'd much appreciate it. thanks eric zamora fresno, ca.

if this isn't on-topic, i don't know what IS... ;-)
i won an ebay auction awhile back:
cgi.ebay.comeBayISAPI.dll
i have the standard campagnolo NR braze on shift levers which i've just started to replace with the
newer auction shifters. my problem is there are more parts with this set of braze on shift levers
than the old ones so it isn't a simple case of switching out the older parts for the newer ones.
anybody have a schematic drawing of which parts go in which order? or can someone describe
installation? there are 2 thin wire-like bronze-colored washers with a wide opening, four wider
silver washers with small holes, two saucer like plates with campagnolo inscribed on them (figure
these go on the outside), the wire handled bolts, two metal inserts which i figure go into the braze
on studs AFTER the levers are installed and of course, the back plates with the lever stops. the
four silver wide washers are throwing me a bit, as well as the wire-like smaller ones.
i've installed the front deraileur's lever and it seems to be working fine so if no further info
comes my way, i'll just duplicate what i did with the front one for the second lever. but if anyone
can help confirm this, i'd much appreciate it.
thanks

It's described as "early". Hmmm.
You have the 1987 Record Doppler retrofriction lever:
