Did you manage to find anyone supplying the gear knob? I need one also as the paint has peeled off mine, but I can't find it on Caterhams website or anywhere else.
Hi Rich,
In the end I accepted defeat and purchased the "standard" 6 Speed Superlight Gear Knob from Caterham (Reference: 30G022A).
But I did also establish that by choice they dont offer the "R" 6 speed gear knob as a spare - seemingly it is exclusive for factory builds or new kits.

Presumably then, they don't do it at all any more, given the 6 speed is no longer available? So, if they did have any, they might as well,flog them off.

Very good point - admittedly I didn't know the 6-speed has been discontinued.
It was David Ridley of CC whom told me this at Snetterton last summer.
I guess it now makes the "6 Speed R" gear knobs 'even' more special :D
6 speed knobs are out of stock at the moment. I have just bought one from Alistair Westle on Facebook.
A knob in the hand is worth 2 in the bush........That does not make sense......Sorry....

I actually needed a 5speed R gear knob, not sure why I wrote 6 :/ managed to get one off caterham in the end thankfully.

According to the store website the 6 speed knob with red R is now in stock. £92 or so.
