Evening all:
I bought my wife a GT Timberline mountain bike back in '95 as a graduation gift. She rode it twice and put it to sleep in our basement. Well now we're getting back into cycling and I need to tune her bike up. I've got everything working except the shifters. The bike has Shamano Acera SIS shifters and derailers. The shifters have two levers- one to raise the gear and the other to lower the gear. Both levers seem to have no tension but the cables do not appear to be broken- as I can yank on the cables along the lower frame tube and the derailers move. What do I have to do to get these shifters to work?
Thanks for all your help.
Pete
