Fantastic explanation , I must commend you on the time and effort you have put into this tutorial. However more important was the fact that it was genuinely interesting , so much so that I’m just about to watch #2. Well done , you should be working for Shimano as head of their technical department 👍👍
@@Pastapit A big topic and a growth industry for bike shops. I’ve been riding and racing bikes from the late 1960’s. From trying to emulate the great Roger De Vlaeminck to watching the results of wind tunnel positioning enable gifted riders to go unbelievably fast , technology is extremely specific for desired outcomes. However with your skill level at presentation I am extremely interested. 👍👍
Thank you for the fantastic video! Do you know if the internal parts like the piston seals and bladder are available for purchase? I have a bad right R8070 shifter which I would like to repair if these parts are available.
Hi - thanks for compliments! I think that there is no possibility to buy these spare parts - maybe you can find a defect used lever with electrical malfunction! Most likely the hydraulic parts then are in good condition so you can reuse them! All the best!
Congratulations for your great work and video. I'm having a problem with oil leaking from the piston and I can't identify the part numbers of the seals or the piston seal kit to purchase them. You know these numbers or where to buy them. I will appreciate your help
Hi, thanks! Unfortunately there are no spare parts available as far as I know! The best way would be to just buy a used lever - you can find them... sometimes described as: Electronic is working but hydraulic does not work - I am quite shure that these guys are exactly facing the described filling topic! All the best!

Thank you very much! I really had to invest that work in order to find out how the system works in detail...
...maybe the next video about bike fitting is interesting for you as well...
