Do you think that having a way of keeping all wheels on the ground at once is very important, or should we concentrate more on a very sturdy frame (that has all four wheels on solid ground) and hope it doesn't warp too much?
If you are going to order Nanos and hubs (a great choice by the way) go a head and order hex hubs and Nano's with hex shafts. SO much easier and stronger than using keys.
