ABSTRACT:
In a double assembly for bicycle speed control including a first lever for operating a rear derailleur by means of a control cable in order to shift an endless drive chain from one rear sprocket to a selected rear sprocket of a multiple freewheel, and a second lever for operating a front derailleur by means of a further control cable in order to shift the chain from one front sprocket to another front sprocket of a chainwheel, pivotal motion of the first lever causes synchronous sliding motion of the second lever through a motion converting mechanism so as to automatically center a guide cage of the front derailleur over a chain line thereby to prevent the chain from hitting the inside of the guide cage.
