Re: Mecanum Demo-Bot Recommendations?

I would recommend 6 inch VEXpro wheels:

The 6 inch variety isn't very expensive but is still big enough to see them working well enough. Also a smaller wheel means less gearing.

I think either a modified KOP chassis or a Versa-frame with the clamping gearboxes would work great. You'd probably need to make a guard around the gears to avoid potential for harm.

You could also try a Andymark Nanotube chassis:
