It's harder on the synchros if you shift into a very low gear when moving at a high speed. The resistance you feel is the synchros trying to do their job.
So for example if you are on the highway going 60 mph and you take an off ramp with a sharp turn at the end and you say "OK, I will need to be in 2nd for that turn, so I will just push the clutch in now and shift to 2nd at 60 mph" you are going to feel significant resustance and doing this often will cause a lot of wear on your synchros. |
