Reply to "Handlebar Mounted Counter"

kevinplucasMember

My old Jones - Oerth- Lacroix counter is being held together by some tape and wire these days. I have been scrambling around for helpful replacement parts. Laurent Lacroix has ceased producing counters, but has a small stock of various components. Paul Oerth passed away in 2012 and his son Stephen no longer produces their handle bar mounted counters. Both experienced a loss of regular component parts supply.

I must admit that my older eyes really appreciate the handle bar mounted counter. It is just plain easier to see.

If the old style metal gear drive has been replaced by a plastic version, why isn’t the plastic gear drive a workable solution for a handle bar mounted Jones Counter? Has anyone previously had problems with the plastic gear drive?

It is my understanding that the gear drive is made FRP-fiber reinforced plastic. These FRP plastics are pretty tough and commonly used in the automotive, aerospace and construction industries.
