Re: pic: Offseason Drive Idea

I'm really not all that concerned about CG; the highest point of this whole assembly is ~10'' off the ground.

Re: Pulley sizes, after toying around a bit I'm pretty sure I'm going to keep them all the same size, for ease of replacement. Making the outer pulleys smaller involves either greatly complicating the wheel spacer arrangement (which is very simple right now) or having the wheels out-of-line, and moreover requires that you keep more backups.
