It looks like, from what I read, that the transmission is necessary for reverse and as a stepper gear for low speed and then high. I also noted how they mentioned that you pretty much had to choose one or the other (hill climb or top end). I live in Alabama and climbing a hill is a must. So is freeway speed.

Looks like I'm back to my original question: Do you think a 9" motor coupled to a 6spd manual will have enough gearing to make it fast AND cruise on the top end with only 72v?
