Re: RS775 In Drivetrain?

We used them briefly last year. We had a 3 CIM Ball Shifter with 2 CIMs and an R775 on each side. We didn't see much performance boost and they became hot and didn't really work out well in our setup. This isn't to say they wouldn't work in your application but we just didn't see the need for them. As to the discussion about them burning out we never had that problem but i could see it happening if pushed continuously for very long periods of time.
