Re: COTS Shifter Comparison Question
This season we've used the VEX 3-CIM ball shifters with the 3rd stage WCD addon. So far we've really liked them.
PROS: Lightweight Easy assembly (except shifting shaft coupler) Easy to install/pull from drivetrain Smooth, fast shifting action Integrated encoder mount Lots of options for gear spread Low-maintenance Good customer support by VEX Flexible mounting options CONS: Shifting shaft coupler tricky to assemble Encoder gear can slip (this was fixed by replacing it with a new gear provided by VEX with a tighter fit) Locknut stripping it's plastic socket (minor problem but annoying) Overall we're quite satisfied with these gearboxes and would recommend them to anyone who wants a light, reliable, smooth shifting gearbox. |
