We actually won Orlando using the exact strategy you mentioned. So that makes me feel good that someone else considers this strategy of play to be an effective inbounder skillset.
It's fantastic that you guys are happy to play that role.

As far as mounting colsons with the kitbot. This document:

Explains how you could replace the KOP wheels with vex pro wheels and pulleys. Since they use the versahub mounting pattern, I assume you could swap in http://www.wcproducts.net/colson-hub/ in place of the versawheels, to mount your colson wheels onto. Good luck with your preparations.
