The motors are operating at a very unhappy torque & speed point.

It seems like that would improve overheating, although at the cost of range.

If you get rid of the gear-up you can increase the motor voltage to get the same wheel speed at a faster motor speed which puts the motors at a much happier operating point.
Motors don't like to go slow. They want to go fast.
People don't have to "get" it. They just have to know about it. Once they know about it, then they come to it, experience it, talk to it, learn it, then get it. - Taylor [more]
