Roller arm - Wheel

Hello World,
I am in the process of designing a roller arm, which sucks in the tube with tread, and there are mixed views as to one aspect. One party thinks we should have an idle wheel at the back to minimize friction with the frame, and one party believes that if the frame has a curve at the back, a wheel is not needed.
Opinions?
