Abstract
A speed change operation assembly is provided which requires only a small mounting space and is unlikely to interfere with a brake lever assembly and the like even if mounted near a grip portion of a handlebar. The speed change operation assembly (1) comprises an annular lever mount (5) fixedly fitted on a handlebar (2), and a generally C-shaped lever member (6) elastically fitted on the lever mount for pivotal operation about an axis of the handlebar. The lever mount is integrally formed, on its outer circumference, with a sheath stopper portion (11) for attachment to an end of an outer sheath (w2) of a speed control cable (W) which additionally includes an inner wire (w]) inserted in the outer sheath. On the other hand, the lever member is integrally formed, on its outer circumference, with a wire stopper portion (14) for attachment to an end of the inner wire extending beyond the end of the outer sheath as well as with operating arm portions (15a, 5b) for engagement with the fingers of a rider.
