Non sono molto d\'accordo con la scelta fatta \"rpm variator\", perché rpm è una unità di misura; è come dicessi che vario i metri e non la \"lunghezza\", e poi perché i metri e non i cm o mm; altro motivo la velocità si esprime in 1/min (uno/minuto), ma anche 1/s (uno diviso secondo; la grandezza che si varia è la \"velocità\" ed i giri al minuto o al secondo rappresentano l\'unità di misura.
