Re: Are two speed transmissions worth it?
I am the only one to have voted "no" so far...

We used our 2 speed AM shifters 1 out of every 2 matches this year. They helped us dart across the field, but we never used them for an extended period of time.

I'll admit they weren't useless... but they weren't worth the weight of the pneumatics.

If you're going to use pneumatics anyways I would say "go ahead." But otherwise save the weight and put it where it counts - in the scoring device.
