Re: MTB rear derailleur shifting problem

The stops within the grip shift are worn out. I did three of them
(Right, Left, Right) on a HUFFY KMART Powerline 21. The first
replacements pair cost 10 for one or 15 for pair and 5 shipping. For
the second replacement went to LBS and cheapest was 25 for one. Both
from same manufacturer, SRAM.
