Shift on the fly LEGO gearbox

After seeing the Shift-on-the-fly TechnoKat Gearbox I was inspired to see if it was possible to create one using LEGO. And of coarse it turns out that you can! (What can't be built with LEGO? )

Below are two pictures of the gearbox. The first one shows the shifter in high gear and the second in low.

Please note that the gearbox can and will be built much more compact. I wanted to keep it spread out so I could easily show everyone how it worked.

Please post any questions or comments.
