How did you mount your banebot wheels to the el toro sticks? Banebot wheels are typically center keyed or hex keyed in the middle.

Regards,
Yes the bane bot wheels where hex keyed and we discovered that 1/2in aluminum rod fits perfectly with just a little tap of a hammer they fit. They were very snug we couldn't move them unless we take a hammer to it. initially before we found that the 1/2 fit we were going to bore the wheel out to a certain size then press the stick through it but this was much simpler.
this aluminum rod we then attached to a pg71 gear motor using a machined adapter. I can possible post a picture soon
