This is a nice example of a used 27" Western Flyer 270 speedometer head from Iku of Holland, with a dial calibrated for bicycles with 27" front wheels. It's all complete and in good working order, ready to install. (Drive cable not included)

The black plastic speedometer casing is 3" in diameter and about 2" deep with a stainless steel mounting bracket, and is in good original condition. The dial is finished in black with a red pointer, white logo and white numbers. There is a color-coded (green/yellow/red) danger speed zone ring around the scale, with an RPM scale on the inside. 

There is a small star crack in the clear cover at bottom center (see Photos 1 & 2), but it's not obvious. Some scratches in the case may be visible up close, but both the case and dial cover have been polished and waxed. 

This will need an Iku drive hub and cable with a 2.5mm square drive tip. I have found that older Stewart-Warner drive cable/hub assemblies will also work, although you will need to trim 1/4" to 1/2" off the end of the Stewart-Warner cable core in order to get the attaching collar properly threaded on to the head. There is no accumulated mileage; it's just passing 0000.1.
