My dwarf hands struggle to reach the brakes on my road bike. This was very evident when descending last weekend.

There appears to be Specialized and Shimano shims for 105 and Ultegra. The Shimano site suggests "Reach Adjuster : Spacer Use", but no spacers are listed. Will the other types fit - anyone know?

Anyone with a Madison catalogue help me out with a part number?

Um. I just fitted 5700 levers and got a close look at the spacers.

The 3500 Sora levers I replaced seemed to have one already installed that looks like it should be compatible with the 5700 items.

For the rh lever you need Madison part number y6vx98090 and for the left lever madison part number y6vy98070. Both in stock, £3.99 each. Any dealer with a Madison account can ge t them dead easily as they are carriage paid parts.
