What is CD reader recommendations for:
-size of wheels
-vendor of wheels
-a frame that can be bolted or riveted - easy to see what is happening when bumpers removed
-a gearbox that makes both assembly and maintenance easy
Looking for a robust solution that can also be visually understood by visitors.
Thanks!

You could try using VersaFrame combined with Clamping Gearboxes, both from VexPro. We used the clamping gearboxes from VexPro in 2015 and they overall worked pretty great. It keeps the base simple, and VersaFrame is a relatively cheap, low resource option.
