I've almost completed my first project - the assembly of a 1980's Walvale.
I'm at the wiring up stage and have come across a problem with the friction shifters and gear changes.
The front shifter (left) works ok but the right one keeps returning to its starting position. When I turn the shifter anticlockwise the rear derilleur functions and the chain moves up the cogs but the moment I let go of the shifter it pulls back in line with the downtube and the chain shifts back to the lowest cog.
Any idea what I've done wrong? Can I have too much tension in the cable?
They are Campagnolo C Record Friction Shifters.
Thanks
