A lot of this reduced travel is down to the 3 speed cars having repro levers which weren't designed for 3 speed cars. Time and lack of rigour in presumably the 60s and 70s has meant that the pattern has been lost from all forms of present reproduction.. so they are using 4 speed pattern levers all of which aren't adjustable like the originals were. So all sorts of workarounds/bodges are employed to get one back to normality.
