Those speeds will cause problems and the robot will be difficult to control, and susceptible to having the CIM's stalled if pushed in High gear.
Which spread are you using? and are you using the 3rd stage?

You are correct that we are using the ball shifters. Most of the time we were running the robot in the low gear, and used that to get over almost every obstacle. We also have the third stage, on which I believe the ratio is 60:24. We don't plan on spending a lot of time in the high gear for the resons you listed and others.
