ABSTRACT:
A cable actuating lever is disclosed wherein the lever is operable when shifted in any direction within a 360.degree. range. This mechanism is easily attached to the handle bars of bicycles, motorcycles, and similar vehicles where a readily accessible manual control means is required to actuate braking, clutchings or other mechanical operations.
Due to its capability to flex in any direction, the danger of breakage, bending, or becoming inoperable by an impact force applied contrary to its normal operating direction is virtually eliminated.
