Re: Banebot Gearbox

I too have concerns about shaft loading on the BB trans. If we were to use the 2 cim adapter and use 2 sprockets to duplicate last years 4 motor 4 wheel drive kit bot, can the 56mm trans take that shaft load and input? Has it been tested. Is the bearing support necessary for a 2 sprocket load? Can the 56 mm trans handle 2 cims? Would a safer bet be 4 cims 4 trans? Joe any comments?
