Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Problem with a shifter lever.

I have a Campagnolo Xenon 2x9 shifter levers,and somethings wrong with my shifter lever for a front mech,i can't make more than 2 "clicks" when i wanna shift to higher gear.I have a trim setting,but i forgot how many "clicks" i had when everything worked normally lol.
Not sure if it was 3 or 4 clicks,but is it possible that it was like this:
First two clicks =trim,3rd click=shifts to highest gear (hardest),4th/last click=trim again.
i think it was like that.
But now i can't make up even a to 3rd click/shift,it automatically drops down to neutral.

Check the cable inner , usually near the shifter it self. They tend to fray near the hood to handlebar transition, binding everything up. when this happened to me, I was surprised how bad it got before I had a noticeable issue.
