I need some nomenclature
I am enjoying getting my 35 yo touring bike cleaned up and am searching parts on e-bay and CL all the time but I need some nomenclature.
What is the name of the part that clamps on the downtube that the shift cable housings seat into?
I have a Nervar Star cotterless crank that has a plastic screw in plug in on side of the bike but the plug on the shifter side is missing..what is that called?
Thanks
Mike

I'd say "downtube cable stop" and I'd guess from your description the plug is a crankarm dust cap?

The second is a crank arm dust cap.
The first probably has a couple names. I refer to it as a downtube shifter clamp.
