THIS
NEW FEATURE WILL SHOW 'TRICKS OF THE TRADE' TO HELP WITH YOUR
CHOPPER RESTORATION.
All
Club Members and Reps are encouraged to participate,
the
"Tip Feature" is exclusive to RCOC.

Tip will be collated and added to a library
to
help members, and Non-members during restorations, servicing and
general running of the Raleigh Chopper.
How
to adjust Sturmey Archer 3 Speed Hub Gears
Place the gear lever in the
middle position ( 2nd gear ) and slacken the locknut (diagram 2)
at the hub end of the cable, so it can be easily screwed to
tighten or slacken the cable .
Next screw the cable
connection (diagram 3) until the end of the indicator rod can be
seen through the window of the right hand axle nut and is
exactly level with the end of the hub axle. (diagram 1)
When the locknut (diag2) has
been slackened the cable connection (diagram 3) can be screwed ,
make sure the lever is in the second gear position and the
indicator rod is level (diagram 1)
If the gears still do not
engage the cable is probably too tight or loose , the fulcrum
clip (attached to rear stay) needs to be adjusted to tighten or
slacken the cable.
And
there you have it!
Any
comments greatly received.
