Romet Tyler with Questions

[Kevin B]

Found this Romet "Tyler" in the trash today. Aired it up and it rides great. Has new Kenda 26" gum walls on it. They still have all the casting tips.

I'm wondering about the 3 speed. It is in 2nd which is great if it is frozen. It is a Shimano hub. The shifter and cable is gone.

Is there something missing the cable attaches to?

How do I hand shift it to see if it is worth trying to find a cable?

I have been looking for a diamond frame. I want to make a faux bamboo frame like Wildcat made. I don't guess this bike is of any value.
