ok, update. I found a NOS SA 3 speed cable on eBay and that is on the way. I went to Niagra Cycle, and it looks like they have Jagwire grey housing in 50 ft rolls. The way I am buying bikes, I am going to need it. What I didn't see is the end caps/ferrels that go on the ends of the cables. And I am assuming I need a special tool to crimp those on the housing? I also found loose bearings on another site, but I have no idea what size to order. 1/4, 5/16? I don't have a micrometer to measure the bearings with, so I wondered if anyone knew offhand what size I need? I read somewhere that you can just seat loose bearings into the race with grease and skip the cages. The bearings in the crank are 9 bearings in a 1 3/4" cage, and the head bearings are 15 bearings in a 1 1/2" cage. Just measuring with a tape measure, they seem to be 1/4" and 1/8" respectively. Does that sound right? Finally, there is a round tube on the frame that the wire for the shifter runs through. When I took it out, there was a plastic sleeve with a slot in it that kept the wire from rubbing on the frame. When it came out, it split in half. Does anyone know what that piece is called, and has anyone had to replace one of these? I looked all over, and I haven't seen anything like it.
