ABSTRACT:
A combined brake and shifting control device includes a brake lever housing, a brake lever pivotably coupled to the brake lever housing, a speed change housing, a ratchet mechanism disposed within the speed change housing, one or more shift levers coupled to the ratchet mechanism so that the ratchet mechanism rotates in response to movement of the shift lever(s), and a shaft coupled to the ratchet mechanism for rotation therewith. The speed change housing is attached to a brake lever housing so that the shaft extends outside the speed change housing and into the brake lever housing.
