Re: Switching from Toughbox to SuperShifter

We want to be able to be fast while not losing our ability to win a pushing match.

If we get shifters, we will likely put the second set of CIMs on if we can spare the weight (or if we change gears in the toughbox). We are currently geared low (not sure how low, but we don't get pushed at all, and are pretty slow)

The general consensus seems to be gear up and add a CIM as an easy solution. However, I'm still interested in switching to shifters if it's possible to do on our robot (during an event), I'm looking for observations from someone who has made the switch; do the parts have the same attachment points/dimensions, are there any gotchas that we could run into, etc?
