I have a different thread on that. It's funny, I used a solvent that didn't do squat, yet once it got warm outside, I removed the brifters and soaked them in WD40, then left them in the sun for a good while. Then soaked again and finally got them free... So they will go back on the Cannondale R200 soon. I did still get the 3400 Sora brifters. Cheap and I'll just hold onto them for a while...
But for now, the CAAD8 awaits my attention...
