I wanted 1st to be usable and there to be a reasonable step to 2nd. That required a CA for 1st and a H for second. Normally the H means buying a $1300 shaft and the gear is another pile of money. I took a different option.

Carquip built me a shaft with the original gear machined off and a H welded on. The good Doctor did the assembly for me ( I think there was some swearing). I've included a photo of the original shaft and the modified one so you can see the difference. I hope to be telling you about the difference based on the feeling in the car seat soon.

Interesting about hesitant to go to 3rd gear. Of course I always did the ZD flip for 3rd and always found my self rowing 2-3-2-3 on bigger courses without any issues. And my rev limiter was 7 grand.
