This is a clean and fully functional used example of a 21½" Schwinn-Approved Sting-Ray speedometer cable by Huret, part number 08 472, just what you need for Huret-built Schwinn speedometer installations on Sting-Rays, Fastbacks or other bikes with 20" front wheels. (For Krate applications, see my other listings for a 23½" cable, in an auction scheduled to end 15 minutes after this one.)

This is compatible with all Huret-manufactured Schwinn Approved speedometers (usually stamped "MADE IN FRANCE" on the back), as well as Huret's own brand of speedometers. (It does not fit the large, round speedometers from Stewart-Warner.)

The cable is in good working order, clean and flexible, with securely-attached collars. Everything is intact, and it works fine.

CAUTION: Please be sure that your speedometer head is turning freely before installing this cable. Bicycle speedometer cables usually break because the speedometer head has seized up from years of storage. Replacing the cable will not free up the speedo head; it will simply break the new cable as soon as you start pedaling. To check that your speedometer head is able to turn properly, insert a small flat-blade screwdriver in the back of the speedo head (where the cable goes in), and be sure that the square-holed inner barrel of the speedometer head can turn freely before connecting this cable.
