Paul,

I can't agree that it takes 4 hours to break the wheels. We had no practice on the robot before it was bagged, so the wheels were fresh when we got to the regional. We ran 4 practice matches on Thursday, then in our fifth match on Friday one of the roller stands broke off. We did not have enough time to change it before the next match, so we ran the match with one roller missing on the wheel. During that match we broke two more roller stands off the same wheel. It was the last match of the day, so we had time to change all of the rollers on the wheel. By my calculations, we did not have half an hour on the wheel. Unfortunately, we were at our only regional on the first weekend, so we learned about the breaking wheel before this was posted.
