It's not surprising that someone could make a 3 CIM w/ PTO gearbox smaller and lighter than vex, but it will likely only fit a few situations. Vex/WCP must sell a gearbox that will work for as many as possible. I feel they've done a great job o this.

You're right. I just came from designing a 3 CIM PTO gearbox with a 22 tooth pulley for the PTO, so I was comparing with that, but I'd be willing to bet that 90% of teams purchasing that gearbox will end up using some type of versa hub product with it.
