Re: Planetary Gearboxes (where to get them?)
I was thinking about going with a dewalt, just because they seem to be something that is very obtainable. The BB gearboxes screwed me over so much last year that i don't feel too comfortable going with them hehe (nothing against BB, they have provided so many great services for my projects). My friend used a matex gearbox for his scooter that was powered by the same motor i planed to use. They were great gearboxes, but just a little to bulky and noisy for what i want to use it for.

i'm thinking i may just have to go with dewalts for the AM FP-> Cim gearbox... But if anyone out there has any great sources please post them here!
