We're running VersaWheels with Vex single speed / single stage gearboxes. Gearbox is chained to the wheels (32:16). That gives us a theoretical speed of 8.7 ft/s, which is the slowest we've geared since I started.

We decided that we had enough on our plates without doing anything fancy on the drive. With the chain reduction, we were able to to keep gearing it slower until we could spin the tires.

VersaWheels + single stage is just about as simple, cheap, and as light as it gets. We like it.
