Re: Possible to do multi-speed transmission with v-belt?

I never said this design WOULD'NT work, all I was saying was that I have had experience with a two speed belt tranny, and it was pointless. We had no torque, because all that energy was now going into belt slippage, gears are soooo the way to go.

Not to completely bash your idea, if you were looking at it as a way to teach kids about reduction, or even on a practice bot, the idea is logical.
