Bakelite, perhaps?=20

I've had speedos with both types of gears; I think the Bakelite ones are ac=
tually a bit sturdier. The plastic ones tend to crack radially, which cause=
s the indicator needle to bounce regularly, proportional to speed.=20

They say on their web shop that the gears have a 5 mm hole, so presumably i=
t's up to the customer to fit it on the shaft=20
.And I didn't even know that the gears are available. As a side note, what =
they sell are the modern gears made of plastic, the old gears were made of =
some fiber material, can't remember the name at the moment, that gets a bit=
 brittle over the years.=20

I'm working from (always suspect) memory, but aren't these gears--odometer =
and tripmeter--pressed onto small steel shafts, for driving the ratcheting =
mechanisms? Do the gears come with the shafts?=20

My BJ8 speedometer has a broken phenolic gear that runs the trip odometer a=
nd I need to find a new one. I called Nisonger Instruments this am about a =
replacement. They have them but don=E2=80=99t sell=20

them. Obviously there is little money in supplying this gear but there must=
 be somewhere that it can be purchased. If anyone knows please let me know.=
