I have a Cravenspeed short shifter and previous owner installed a carbon fiber **** that just won't come off. Tried everything plus a buddy lifts wts big time and he couldn't budge it. Reluctantly put open end wrench beneath **** collar and rapped it from underneath w/hammer...no budge.
Any way to get the shifter apart. Want to put the Gravenspeed shift well on.
No set screws on the chrome collar underneath the CF **** and tried to "unscrew" the collar but it seems to be part of the ****.
Wondered if the connection on the Cravenspeed could be released?
Evidently the shaft on all the Cravenspeed are threaded and for our application there is a sleeve that goes over the threaded part and the **** is inserted over the sleeve. Anyone have experience with how the sleeve is attached?
Just tried to unscrew it but was rotating the whole shaft...back to the drawing board. Hate to put a pipe wrench on it but maybe with enough tape and prep I can try it that way.
To bring closure... I think the OP got the **** off. I was the original owner and finally logged in and saw his pm. The chrome collar on the bottom unscrews and reveals the 3 pinch screws that need to be loosened.
^^ sopunds like an M7 from that description. CF, chrome collar, set screws underneath...
we should trade, until i shimmed mine, it loved to get loose and wobble all the time. I wouldn't mind mine being stuck....
