this is usually caused by the self adjusting cable mechanism failing/on its way out, so new cable should fix it,
assuming it has a cable clutch and not a hydraulic one

Think this is it:

Part Number Description Quantity Price excl. VAT Price incl. VAT Total incl. VAT Selection
0000214854 ASSIST SPRING 7.36 GBP 8.83 GBP 8.83 GBP

Worth a punt at that price, but I wonder if a new clutch might be in order sooner rather than later... :roll:

but it's never a nicer change as zanty was you sort of have to row this thing where as zanty just changed quickly and could drop it down a gear without even feeling it when slowing down etc nice and smooth
