Ultegra Di2 disc brake hydraulic R8070 lever/shifter Nameplate “workaround”

Apologies if this is not the “forum”.

The above listed “nameplates” (see example, in link below) don’t seem to be sold and Shimano also doesn’t supply them as parts. Mine are damaged and need replacement. Anyone dealt with this? If so, what did you do? Please don’t unanimously say 3D printing :blush: TIA.

eBay maybe.

Part literally doesn’t exist according to Shimano:

…leaving the options as ‘3d printing’ or maybe some sort of plastic/silicone putty like Sugru, depending on the damage

Yeah, just because they have a part number for something does not mean its available.

I waited over a year for the longer spindles for Ultegra pedals. Never got them. :man_facepalming:

It was common in the computer industry too.

The point is there isn’t a part number, so Shimano are effectively saying “you’ll never get this from us”!

Gotcha. Saw all the part numbers on one image. That happens so much sometimes. Think you got it solved and there aren’t any parts for that number available.

RIGHT TO REPAIR!!!
