Re: Who makes their own wheels?

Here is our latest custom wheel:



Some details:
1) It's about an inch and a half in diameter.
2) It features nine spokes - they're thin but since there are nine of them it should work out.
3) We have a custom bore in the middle to maximize torque transfer without too much shock load on the shaft.
4) There is slightly more material on one end so that the moment of mass is slightly off center, resulting in easier obstacle traversal.
5) It is manufactured through a natural extrusion method our team has worked with the farmers in the local area to develop.
6) It is comprised of a strong organic compound that we believe no team has used before and can give us an advantage on the field.



....or that's a lemon from dinner tonight. I forget which.
