While winter keeps me from riding and to stave off a potential problem, I thought it would be a good idea to think about replacing the odometer gears. I don't know that they have been done but someone correct me if I am wrong about something. The original gears had a lubricant on them, correct? My gears look like they have something shiny on them, much like a clear lubricant would look. I have attached an image.
Also, there is a clear plastic slotted screw that goes up against the shaft that protrudes from the right side of the odometer. What is this for and what is its proper position?
My trip meter has always been a little dodgy when resetting to zero. If I don't do it just exactly right (I know what to do now) then the tens digit will stay halfway between numbers every time it cycles. It works but stays in between full numbers. Is there anything that can be done about that or is it a matter of replacing the bank of wheels?
Thanks,
Tom
