Subject: [CR]Re: Campy front derailleur tips

Snap-On makes a nice long 1/8 inch drift punch that works well. Use a QR axle with a cone on it in an axle vise so that you can have support to push it straight through. When you re-assemble it, ber very careful not to push the ears to close to the pivot arm, or it will bind. Good Luck, Earle Young, Madison, Wi.
