Re: Wanted rohloff shifter,cable box
Hi bikemad, Welcome to the rohloff owners club I was considering a Gebla box. Maybe we could do an exchange. Where, are you based? Any way PM me if you are interested. Ledburner. Ps I copied an monkey bone, rather than a speed bone, a neater solution. https://www.starbike.com/en/rohloff-monkey-bone-...

Re: Wanted rohloff shifter,cable box & 160mm monkeybone mount
Sorry I can't help you.
Try, maybe ebay and German/European ebay.de

I modified a disk adaptor to do the same job as a speed/monkey bone.
