michaelb Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Had this bike from new, and after much procrastinating thought I might bring it back to something like original condition. Not much of a mechanic, but know the right end of a spanner and have a bit of common sense (at least I think so), and began the task. This led me to problem #1. speedo stopped working about 20 years ago , cable missing for last 15.When I pulled the front hub apart the speedo gears seem jammed . any ideas how to get them moving or out?

Moderator Cynic Posted May 7, 2012 Moderator Share Posted May 7, 2012 Where the cable goes in if you clear out all the crud there is a circlip, you will need to give it a good soak though. Those gears are a snug fit and they will take some shifting. The screw gear comes out through the cable hole. They are also about as hard as candle wax so go gentle. Oh and welcome to the forum. Ps, BUY A MANUAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DTGordo Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Fleabay usually has something coming up from time to time. Some are better than others but it depends on what is available and $. Small chance that your local library might have one. Gordo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
