ABSTRACT:
A shifter boss mounting assembly includes a member threaded at each end and extending diametrically at least partway through a bicycle frame downtube formed with openings therein, a pair of shifter boss bases with inward surfaces conforming to the downtube outer surface, and a pair of shifter studs that extend through the base and a respective opening in the downtube and thread onto the corresponding threaded ends of the member. A projection on each base cooperates with an opening or indentation in the downtube to restrain the base from rotational movement. A lock washer or a plate keyed to cooperate with the base and the stud restrain the stud against unthreading when the shift levers are pivoted. Once mounted, the boss assembly is standardized in its external configuration to bosses adapted to receive standard commercial shift lever assemblies.
