Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install this bracket, you must first remove the gear cable from the shifter and detach the unit from your handlebars. Carefully unscrew the existing damaged bracket, ensuring that no internal springs or small tension parts are lost during the process. Align the new Y0CS98030 bracket with the shifter body and secure it using the provided fixing bolt, being careful not to overtighten and strip the plastic housing. Regular care involves checking this bolt during routine bike maintenance to ensure it remains tight and free of vibration-induced loosening. This component is strictly compatible with the Shimano Deore SL-M6000 left shifter featuring an indicator window.
