Re: Vex Pro Shifters
We didn't use them on the competition bot, but we've spent plenty of time with ours. Apart from the output shaft falling out, which is easily fixable, they've been great! They're super light, and cheaper than super shifters.

Re: Vex Pro Shifters
We are very happy with the ball shifters. The only issue as compared to a SuperShifter is that we needed to use a smaller output and larger wheel sprocket. Oh, and a SS can have a 4:1 range, or it can be like the ball shifter with a ~1:2.7 range.
We also had the output shaft come loose, but repaired it with adhesive. We especially like the weight and cost savings. |

Re: Vex Pro Shifters
They've worked extremely well for us. In regard to the question about WCD mounting, we made a custom gearbox plate to offset them from our tubes so that we could put the sprocket for our live axles directly on the output shaft. wasn't really a problem.
