can anyone suggest a remedy for a sticky clutch button on the Calcutta 700s?? after breaking it down and reassembling i can get it to work for a dozen times, then it just turns back to custard. i just installed a new clutch retraction spring to no avail.
it feels as though the drama is in the clutch plate/clutch pawl which i was going to give 'tweak'
any suggestions appreciated...cheers
one problem i have had with the old 700 series. i use penn drag washers for them. the "jigmaster" thickness drag washers are single layer and sometimes the kick lever would not flip back into place properly. using a thicker "senator" drag washer fixed that problem. the senator ht-100's have a core of fiberglass with carbon fiber on either side. the thicker drag washer gave the kick lever enough clearance. did you use a carbontex set or did you hobble together a set of penn drag washers?
cheers for that Alan, at the moment its just running the standard Shimano drags. I may have some carbontex drags that i can throw in to try
