Tri-Wheel Designs
Hey Folks,

I've seen a few teams with the so-called "Tri-Wheel" designs this year, for climbing the step. I'm wondering how teams have fared with this design, and if it has showed any weight or performance advantage over other designs (ie. big wheels, pneumatic systems, treads, etc...) At team 228, we tried to build such a system. To put it bluntly, it failed miserably. Is anyone willing to post pictures, drawings, or sketches of their designs? TIA!
