Look on Ebay - lots of people take them off because they get in the way and are pretty unnecessary.

Don't worry about them. If it's getting hard to pedal then shift down. If you're spinning away then shift up. If the lever won't go any further then you have run out of gears.
If you have time to look down at a little indicator and read it properly then your riding too slow.

LOOOL lovely put rocky just abit of bike build OCD me thinks on my part would XT window fit onto SLX shifter:D?

rockmonkeysc

Probably. Indicator windows limit your brake and shifter set up on the bars quite a lot.

For me, they're pointless for all the reasons listed above. I removed them from my SLX shifters.

If I can find them you can have them

chachasunni

You can't see them in the dark, they add weight, learn to ride properly (then you don't need indicators at all), a much better OCD to have!
