I'm so persuasive that I convinced myself to talk to the seller about the black Nexus 8 too
- jokes aside, I asked if he'd throw in the Cassette Joint kit - the necessary rotary actuator. Can't recall, but it might differ depending on the dropout.
Part of it is because I tore down and reassembled the G9
three times tonight. On the last run, I pulled all the pawls and springs as well. I've come to the conclusion that the clock spring is the problem child. It's supposed to be the return spring of the shift actuator, and there is absolutely
no practical way to add tension to it - short of alternating the tabs it sits in - and even when the actuator
seems to retract properly, every possible setup results in 2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-1.
Well sir...I've had enough!
