Have you used bicroflex? Our bot was geared 30:1 using Chipuas and 4 6" diameter wheels (approx 1" wide). With the green belt we turned fine and still had slippage in shoving matches. Then we put brown belt on the back and had it just right. We decided put brown on all four (green belt wearing down) and had problems turning. We took files after the traction material and grinded it down a little, and it worked afterward.

Also, expect to maintain the bicroflex. You'll need to put new belt on, because that stuff wears off fast! Expect a set of wheels to last you 4 or 5 matches before there is a noticable loss of traction.
Same as Brecoflex?
