Even though we were in some matches that were brutal (against 61, wow what a match). matches, I don't think enough torque was applied to the IFI wheels in our configuration to cause any problem. I am planning on using IFI wheels again (after seeing the improved one) and also planning on using Andy Mark transmission. Thank you IFI for providing us with these wheels.
In this arrangement, the IFI wheels see no more torque than the Skyway wheels, so it follows that they're at least as strong as the plastic wheelchair hubs. I don't know if that's saying much, though I've never had trouble with the Skyway wheels.
