Hi ,I have 105shimano 10 speed and my gear lever (rh, the larger one) is causing problems.
When I change gear it doesn't return fully to its oringinal position . It stops half ways and I have to
remember to move it back manually or it messes up my gear changing when I use the smaller lever.
Both inner and outer cables were changed acouple of months ago, I've rolled back the rubber n cleaned the mechanism to no avail.
The kit is 4/5 years old. Could it be that the rear mech might need changing or the lever itself.
Any ideas please?
The chain and cassette are new

Think Its sorted.
Rolled back the hood cover again gave it good clean out with gt81 and then
blasted it out with a dust buster aerosol spray. Bin for a test ride seems ok so far.

That should do it, be aware that these Brifters have a tendency to chew the ends off of the cables though.
