Competition CP Gearbox Numbers

Post by SharkfacePilot »

My appologies if this is a repeated question, can anyone tell me what are suitable gearbox numbers for a wide ratio CP gearbox. ie the number that I would expect to see stampted on the case (eg G2-???-?? etc).

I have a parts list and I can identify individual gears, but it would be useful to know what whole box might be suitable.

Foolishly I sold my WD bike with a wide ratio cluster and inadvertantly kept a standard road set in the box for the trials bike. Bugger!

Thanks

Russell? Russell Motors! Good god! It never occured to me they were still going, but Google showed otherwise. I used to shop there in the mid 70's, I'll give them a yell in the morning.

I was teetering on the brink of making them.

Thanks for the prompt.

If you have the part numbers send them a letter and your visa number they come back by return.
Do not phone do not email.

Thanks, another useful prompt.

I must be missing something, but I can't find any way to search the forum, can someone give me a hint?

Thanks
