Huh I've opened up half a dozen or so AW hubs, but have never seen any appreciable wear on any part inside the hub, odd that this sun gear was seemingly worn away. The teeth on my sun gear were broken off, and the sun gear on this S3C hub is part of the axle.

I did get a brand new SRC3 (II) hub today, I'm excited to get it laced up and ride it, but I also feel like a bit of a traitor what with this not being made in England, and now the bike lost it's oldest part. The frame is from 1988 so I will still be able to pot about this bike on the C&V page, but maybe not in this thread?? ;-)
