Thanks. It's a Shimano SG-C6001 8-Speed hub. Good to know about the rapid fire shifter. Yes, I realise I've never even taken the rear wheel out yet. Definitely need to get more familiar with doing the basic mechanics on it.

Pretty good non-verbal video that shows you everything. They are adjusting by the yellow marks at the bottom of the cassete joint, there should also be a pair at the top with one behind a clear plastic window that would be more easily seen (though maybe harder to get on video) once the wheel was in the bike.

That clear plastic window is all very well when the hub is new, but when it gets dirty enough on the inside, it's useless.
