Torque
If my understanding of the defination of torque is correct and i think it is then the output torqe of the motor is related to the voltage and no matter how you gear it you still get the same torque but by gearing you are essentially (and I say this for simplicity's sake) spreading the torque out over a larger time or concentrating it. The real advantage to gearing is you keep the motor turning so you don't stall it out. The same principle with a car, you have the same torque and horsepower in every gear but unless you car is really REALLY powerful you have to reduce it so you don't stall out until you get into higher into the power band. Hope this helps some.
