The gear assembly includes a ring gear and a plurality of planet gears meshed with the ring gear. Each of the plurality of planet gears is coupled to the carrier of the camshaft, and the ring gear rotationally and radially supports the rear portion of the camshaft via the plurality of planet gears.
