Team 254 uses dog shifting in their gearboxes. Which means that beyond just double loading the pinions, they are cantilevered at the end of the CIM shaft. In this design, and the others that I have posted recently, the pinions are very close to the base of the shaft. This means that the CIM shafts will take a fraction of the torque seen in 254's gearboxes.
