Shimano 3-speed shifter

daleg · 05-02-2011, 01:35 PM

I just bought an old Kent "English style" 3-speed with a Shimano 333 hub. Someone had replaced the handlebar trigger shifter with a T-bar shifter on the middle of the top tube. The shifter cable is too short to reach the bars (I have an old Shimano trigger in my box-o'-parts). Does anyone know of a source for a cable that I could use (or a work-around)?
