    Default Change gears for the Zyto

    I have discovered that the Zyto takes the same change gears as the Myford 7 and Super 7 (20 dp and the same bore and keyways).

    So, if anyone has any spare (or knows of a source), please let me know.

    I am assuming that the old English standard (13 gears from 20 teeth to 75 teeth in 5 tooth steps plus maybe a 63 metric converter (or two 21 teeth) is what I should be looking for to start with. Or do you have any other suggestions?

    BTW I have contacted Minitech and so I know what the cost will be for a complete new replacement set (ouch!!)

    I have also put a post in Buy Sell 'n' Swap
    Cheers

    Hi jmk89,
    Try Mick Moyles www.moyles.com.au/
    They have Myford Gears listed.

    Regards,
    Keith.

    Thanks Keith - I remembered Moyles after I - they have some but not the standards that I wanted.

    Have also seen the ones on epay. It's a slow way to get the basic set!
    Cheers
