Interesting test of older steering system. Usually when idlers are serviced, we suggest new stainless pins, since the older brass pins wear . I've never seen a sprocket damaged like that - obviously not from wear . The corner of the quadrant where your cable started breaking is an obvious problem. Nowadays I am careful to use a larger radius there. We normally suggest ten years life expectancy for the chain and cable, unless you're in the Caribbean and then it's a lot shorter. > Rob Ball.
