Re: pic: 1918 NC Gears

Out of curiosity, have you got any data on the effect of the stacked wheels vs. single wheels on frictional forces?

Also, is there any difference in the wear characteristics when you stack the wheels like that? I'd imagine it'd get expensive replacing all of those if they wore as fast as single versa-wheels.
