Removed Heel Shifter - Need a Chrome Cap
Just like the title says.
I removed my heel shifter and now I have an ugly stud showing from where I took it off.
Does anyone know where I can find a cap for it?
I don't want to slide the toe shifter out - doesn't feel right on my foot.
Thanks!

Can also use your imagination and buy a pipe cap and set screw and make your own, paint it black, etc. Lord knows (and many others on this forum) that I've made some bike parts out of pipe caps, Mom's old windchimes, etc.

Drill out the threads in a chrome lug nut to 1/2" and then drill and tap for 1/4-28 set screw in the side.

Yup. In my case I reused the one from my FLSTC on the Ultra....
