We've got a solid 2.5-second minibot without doing that, but every attempt we have made to do a direct-mount has resulted in a bot that does not have the torque to climb.
I know it's possible because I've seen it done, we just can't seem to figure out how to do it! (Though we'll be spending a long Saturday tomorrow trying more ideas... We'd be working today if not for the Snowpocalypse.)
