I just re-weighed one and got the same result at 4.6 pounds for a Super Shifter (with no motor).
There are ways to reduce weight on this gearbox. One option is to purchase 4
spacers that would replace the black protective extrusion.
The black extrusion weighs 0.71 pounds. 4 of the 2" spacers weigh 0.11 pounds. 0.6 lbs could be saved with this swap.
Also, weight could be reduced from the gears. This would involve more machining time, and that would result in more cost and a higher price for these transmissions. We chose to leave the weight reduction efforts to our customers, and keeping our price as low as we can for this product.
As far as orders go, we have been consistently shipping out these gearboxes within a day or two of the order being placed.
