Speedo cable appears to be too short! My speedo recently stopped working so I naturally assumed the cable had broke so ordered a new one from wemoto. Anyway, it arrived and was duly fitted. It worked for all of 7 miles, then the speedo stopped working again. I checked the cable and it wasn't broke, I then took the front wheel off and checked the workings of the speedo drive, this was fine too. I repacked it with a s@#t load of grease and refitted everything. Again the speedo worked, but only for 6 or 7 miles or so. I've since rechecked everything and every time I reseat the cable into the speedo drive it works for a few short miles. I can't see what the cause of the problem is though. My questions are.... 1. Anyone else experienced the same strange issue? 2. Does anyone know if the innards of the speedo itself can wearing such a way that a standard length cable is no longer long enough (I'm obviously talking about the inner cable). Re: Speedo cable appears to be too short! Within the wheel part of the speedo drive there is a small steel ring with two "tangs" on it. These tangs are what turns the worm drive in the speedo hub that slots into the wheel via a plastic insert. Either they need "adjusting" so that they contact the hub side, or the plastic bit in the hub is overly warn. I've adjusted the tangs once
