Does it work okay with just one? Well, I suppose it does from what I read about the transmission's success. But wouldn't the gear wobble some on the shaft with only one bearing in there?

EDIT: One more question, what would be the pros and cons of machining the dog mates right into the hub of the gear as opposed to using a hubless gear and machining separate dog mates? I'm just thinking about less complexity.
