Rages about wheels (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gears

'wheels' is the definition.
(I know this)

'rages about' is the wordplay.
'about' is an anagram indicator.
'rages' with letters rearranged gives 'GEARS'.

(Other definitions for gears that I've seen before include "Sarge (anag.)" , "Rages (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
