: Hi Helmut,
The plastic cable guide is not your
standard Shimano product though you could probably
make it work by cutting out the middle stffener
and adding a custom washer.You will have to check
with your local Merlin dealer for a replcement.
To extend the life of the present one on my road
bike I took a piece of teflon liner out of a piece
of STI shifter casing and wedged it into the groove
of old cable guide. Seems to be working OK so far.
Cheers,
Winston
