Been riding Shimano brifters for the last 20 years.
Never had one fail and I am on the gears all the time.
What’s your secret? Which series?
(I’ve only had one Shimano set and they were stuffed before the bike got to me. )
Ultegra 6600, 6700, 6800,
105 5800
There was a sora before that.
No secret. Yeah I've had wire jam in the shifter.
I now check the rear shift cable regularly and change as required.
Thinking of making it a change each time I do a chain. They are cheap and it ain't hard
Dogs are the best people :wink:
