    Ooops! I gave you some wrong information. It's not Bowler. It's Rowand.

    You probably don't need it though, if you get the correct driven gear.

    I've seen the gears sold as a color (green, white, etc.). Anyone know the tooth count vs. color?

    I'm not sure color will always be a true indicator but all the 21T I've seen are wine(burgundy)... I have some different gears, can check...

    I installed the 17 tooth gear, replacing the 19 tooth gear and now the speedometer is spot on.
