That's too bad. If you haven't had them for very long, maybe you can get a replacement. They claim, "You can use them for a very long time & don't need to worry about breakage. It lasts at least 3 times longer than other pinon gears." If a company is going to make statements like these, they really need to stand behind their products. If you decide to contact them, please let us know what their response is.

This is the product page for 16T gears:
