Hi guys,
i've had this electric hoppytech onroad for quite some time now,
i've never seen any aftermarket parts for it and my spur gears been mashed.
You will probably have never heard of the model but its a Hobby-Tech HT1 i'll post you some pics of the gear and maybe you could post me a link for the gear:

That looks exactly like a Schumacher whisper spur gear (except for the color). Schumacher's website is www.racing-cars.com

If you took 20 minutes with an x-acto, it looks like you could shave off all of the mushy stuff and still use the spur gear for a while. It might make a little bit of noise but it's not at all "ruined". I'd take a few minutes and just clean it up with a razor and at least keep it as a back-up.

Go to www.racing-cars.com the opening page lets you choose between Schumacher-USA or Schumacher-UK.

It is a British company, so I'm sure you can buy from them since you are in the UK.
