Problem is, engineers already knew enough about gearboxes to know it was a bad idea on a bike. Too bad the decision makers at Sram didn’t know. Unfortunately too many of these sorts of decisions are made by people that have no business making these decisions.
The attitude of many companies is to rush to market with half baked products and fix problems later (if they ever fix them at all).
