Re: Wheel Restrictions

Don't try to spin a traction wheel at 5000 rpm on a bushing, please

Make sure you're using properly rated ball bearings and a balanced assembly. Anything else is unsafe. Be cautious of traction wheel tread separation.

Do you have anything in mind? The 6" hi-traction KoP wheel is pretty good at launching discs when direct-driven from a CIM.
