Re: Ideas for Ball Shifter?

The initial reduction on the vexpro ballshifters is because their first stage is barely a reduction (they are just driving one of the pinions for the next).

This makes the package a lot slimmer. If you were to split the gears (similar to the WCP dog shifter) and put the first reduction between them (or not split them and put the first reduction in front or behind them), you'd be able to fit a full reduction.
