you need these parts, but from the looks, that hub is going to need some oil, and the little chain stickking out of the hub may need replaced to if its too worse for wear, the chain gets pulled in and out of the axle and that shifts the hub internally.

the shifter cable your missing threads on to the chain and pulls it when the shifter is moved.

What's wrong with the original SA shifter?

everthing works fine, but do want to know what oil or grease to use for the hub have not realy looked @ it but their looks like a fitting for grease or hole for oil

got the bike with no shifter they had it wired up in 2nd gear

I have not done mine yet, but I was going to hook up a ratcheting type 5-10 speed lever on one, Has anyone tried that, any problems I am overlooking, Rick

I've heard the guys on the Schwinn forum suggest motor oil for SA hubs.

Sounds like you need to buy the missing parts off of Ebay....which will probably cost you more than the bike is worth.

Maybe someone here can help a brotha out. :mrgreen:

ive used motor oil before and its seemed to do the trick, just dont use anything with vegetable oil in it, it will gum up
