A casing for accommodating an operating pull for the purpose of attaching the operating pull to a bicycle gear, especially to a multiple-gear hub with a shifting wheel. The shifting wheel is placed, coaxially to the hub axis, at one of the ends of the hub. The shifting wheel is in contact with a control device that can be operated by the bicyclist during operation of the bicycle. The control device can include a remote-handling device that can be used by the bicyclist. The remote-handling device has a cable pull and a cable cover. The cable cover supports itself on the casing extension by an adjusting screw. The casing has a drive casing, for covering the shifting wheel, and a tubular casing extension, for accommodating the cable pull and an operating pull. The drive casing is connected to the casing extension by a joint with a cable guide. A spring storage and a coupling can be accommodated in the casing extension.
