Re: Trick to removing shifter cables from Ultegra 6700 brifters? [mtlroadie]

I had a problem removing cables on my 6700 shifters and also ended up taking them to my LBS for help. Even they weren't able to get them out. They contacted the Shimano rep and I ended up getting two new shifters under warranty.
I was told that the Shimano rep said 6700's require a specific cable that has a different (larger?) ball end than what 7800/6600 and previous models used and that if you didn't use the right cable, the ball end would get jammed and couldn't be removed.
True or not, I ended up with new shifters, since the shop had done the install.
