Edit are making some EXTREMELY light weight ones, they're highly recomended, not sure on availability yet though. Sure Adam can hrow some light on that side of things.
These should be out in the next month or so....

They've been designed with the following in mind:
Minimum Noise
Minimum Mass
Minimum Wear
Maximum contact area.
Minimum Cost!!!!

Jimmy has pictures of these pinions.

They are about 65-70% lighter than a standard pinion..

To give you an idea the 19T is 1.2g!!

Sure!!!

Material = Unobtanium

Part Numbers : ED200XX0

Substitue XX with the number of teeth you require.

Yes, they do have 2 grub screw holes... The weight of a hole is closer to the weight of a grub screw in a hole than the solid material... Better balance.

The properties of any particular "unobtainium" depend on the intended use. For example, a pulley made of unobtainium might be massless and frictionless. However, if used in a nuclear rocket, unobtainium would be light, strong at high temperatures, and resistant to radiation damage.

Must be good stuff then
