What Tom said. Looks like they're initially only offering the 4:1 stages for the RS-775s. If the RS775 4:1 stages are identical to the RS-540 4:1 stages, then you could buy some of the 5:1 stages from the P60 Gearbox Parts pages and swap them in to make up your own ratios. I suspect they're not going to have a 5:1 pinion for the motor itself, so you'd be swapping in at the 2nd stage or later, which is a little less than ideal... But you'd still get the different ratios you're looking for. 4:5:4 = 81:1, 4:5:5 = 103:1, which gives you a few more options between 64 and 256. Granted that you still have the big jump up from 103 to 256, but unless BB comes out with some 3:1 stages, that's always gonna be a sizable jump.
