Does the flipped dogshifter gearbox support the dual 9mm pulley for use on the drivetrain?

Let me double check and get back to you on that.

Will you guys be releasing a spread chart, as with the standard DS, so that we can easily calculate speeds and ratios?

Working on it. Running goal is to get chart, manual and some informational graphics up by tomorrow. Also fix any small details.

What's up with the "WCP 2 CIM Flipped DS: BackFlip Shifter KIt" option on the Flipped DS? Can't find any info on it.

I'm curious about this as well. We are looking at placing an order today, but I'm not sure what parts you actually need.

I shot RC an email and he told me what's up with them. I quoted what he said below.

The backflip shifter kit allows you to put the shifter above the 2x1 on a wcd drivetrain. The DS shifter kit is the one from the DS gearboxes and mounts to the other side. This is shown in the WCD and NON wcd configs. The DS Shifter kit is the one in the non wcd config.

I would be very interested in seeing what this looks like when mounted to a 2x1. Pictures please RC?

We're ordering ours tomorrow with the WCD and backflip option. I'll post pictures when we get them together and mounted.

There is also a chart to help determine if your selections are reasonable.

Woohoo! Hella thanks RC.

Monday,

We have it done but trying to get BOM, CAD and a few other things finalized so its easier for teams and people viewing. We want to make sure to provide as much content @ release as possible.

R.C., last year's MCC was the crystal ball of the whole competition. You guys know your stuff. I look forward to comparing your assessment of this year's game with my own when MCC 2017 is revealed.

Thanks to you and your company for doing so many great things for all of us. Your products are fantastic again. I admit that I am a little too giddy at the thought of those flipped CIM shifters. Like Christmas when I was five.

Any update on an ETA for polycord pullies?
