I don't know any details about splitters, but if the difference in ratio of the
2 gears in the splitter is smaller than the difference between any of the
standard gears, then it would create ratios between the standard gears as per
Glen's post, I think.

That makes a lot of sense. The configurations I was coming up with in my head,
tended to duplicate ratio's I already had.

Is it something like the front and rear sprockets of a 10+ speed bike? I know
there are frequently duplications of gear ratios there.

Yeah I suppose it would be, because you would have two different sets of gears
that could both be changed. So in that way they'd be the same. The trick is to
not duplicate ratio's because that's a waste.


Yes, and keep in mind that the advantage with an 18speed transmission that I
described in my last post,is that you could go through your low gears without
splitting them, flick into high range and split whichever gears you want...gives
you lots of flexibility..

did that link to EATON Steve help at all?, I wouldn't be surprised if you phoned
EATON(if they have a 1800#) and asked for an explaination..I'm sure they would
accommodate your request...
Happy Holidays to you,

(...) Mechanically, I would think of the splitter as an additional gearbox. Using the same example Maico gave, you have a 4-speed plus reverse gearbox. The splitter would be simply an additional 2-speed gearbox. Suppose the ratios in the 4-speed (...) (18 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
