ABSTRACT:
A speed control apparatus for a bicycle includes a support shaft fixed to a bracket mounted on a handlebar; a first control lever pivotable about the support shaft and retainable in position after pulling a change speed wire to effect a change speed operation, the first control lever being returned to a pull starting position after the change speed operation; and a second control lever pivotable about the support shaft for releasing the change speed wire to effect a change speed operation, the second control lever being returned to a release starting position after the change speed operation. For improved operability of the apparatus, the first and second control levers are operable in opposite directions, with respective control portions of the levers movable close to each other when the levers are operated.
