Re: Is a shifting transmission really necessary?

It is the engineers answer to a set of functional requirements.

The more important questions are:
-Is it really necessary to go 10+ fps?
-Is it really necessary to push with 200 lbs of force?

If yes, then... the transmission is one perfectly viable solution.
Obviously, some sort of solution is "necessary".

Physics isn't just a polite suggestion, it's the law.
