    Would anyone know where I can find out what the gubbins are needed for inside a right-hand Campagnola Potenza shifter and where to buy such gubbins?

    TIA

    Since 11 speed came along,

    Since 11 speed came along, you can’t buy internal parts for Campag ergopower shifters, even though they’re completely serviceable with a couple of special hook tools:

    Your Potenza shifter is Powershift, which means it’s not compatible with Ultrashift 11 speed Campag shifters (Chorus, Record, Super Record)… and not compatible with Athena 11 speed Powershift which uses a slightly different pull ratio. Here’s good info on compatibility:

    Your best bet is to buy a second hand Potenza shifter or one with a problem and try to make one good one out of two duds. It’s fiddly but perfectly doable with a bit of practice.
