Does anyone know what this is worth? It's a circa "1935 Suicide Shifter." It's connected to a Specialized Saturae HX 22 rim...which were spec'd on Team Stump Jumpers in 1985/and is laced to a Sturmey Archer Internal 3 spd Hub.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place. I wasn't sure where to put it.

Thanks in advance.

That is called a "quadrant" shifter. They go anywhere from $60-100 on eBay. That one looks great with the gold, I would bet it gets closer to $100.

The hubs are usually dated on SA hubs, you might have an early SA hub and that can bring some money too.
 
Please show us that Kona Humuhumu......
It's a '95 Kona A'ha. I'm considering selling it (it's minty) with several rare pieces. If I don't, I'm gonna at least take it single speed and build it back up bomber style.
 
Does it have a 7spd hub? Large frame? Those old Kona's are some of my favs. I had a 90's humu that I regret selling.

Clancy,

It's a three-speed hub. I'm told by the guy who owns the bike shop where it's sitting right now that the shifter and hub are extremely smooth. I take his word as I'm just not knowledgeable enough to say that myself. I don't know if it's a large. It's said to be for someone 5'8" to 6'2". As you know, it's a looptail.
