Highgear is a Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
ULTRA GEA... I mean, uh...

The Red Mini-Con Team's resident gearhead (no, not that kind), Highgear lives to take apart and reconstruct engines of all stripes, all in the pursuit of greater speed. Well, speed and chicks, to be completely honest, but he probably has to do something about being constantly smeared with grease to do anything about the latter. He also dreams of finding a planet where they do nothing but race, but surely this Valhalla of velocity is the stuff of pure, crazed fantasy.[1]

When Powerlinxed to a larger Transformer, Highgear enables them to make brief bursts of incredible speed on land. However, he does not have the energy capacity of Fullspeed, and as such must recharge more often. (He probably hopes the ladies don't find this out.)
