THe gears didn't come with the set--they were just in the box when I got it--the
instructions don't show them listed. I'm glad I got them, though--they're
different than the gears in the other 2 old sets I have--these ones fit the old
black link chains better.
Upon futher investigation, turns out that this set came from 'across the
pond'--instructions printed in Germany for sale in Britain.
Now I don't know how it came to me--thought it was purchased in Canada.
So there you are.
