Drop Out Cable Guide?


Have had this Raleigh Professional since new and just took notice of the hole in the right rear drop out. Assuming this is for a cable guide. Anyone have a picture of the correct guide that fits? 1979 model Professional.

This is for a porta catena chain holder. One would hang their chain on it while swapping wheels.

And I just remembered this needed a special shift lever to work as designed. But I am guessing all that is really needed is the part shown.

Nice. Thank you for getting on it. All these years and I never noticed the mounting holes!
