(Home) Manual gearbox - gear selection

I own a 1991 Masteace Surf TD Touring. I suffer from the most terrible gear selection. I have been told this is because the gear selection is via a series of cables. Does anyone else suffer with the same problem? - (#1398) Steve Vale, 8 Nov 01

I've been waiting to see if you get a response to this as I have a manual Liteace with poor gear selection. I guess the lack of feedback shows how rare manual townies are! - (#1439) Rob Storer, 19 Nov 01
