The kitbot is designed to use dead axles. Place the supplied bearings into the AndyMark wheel and bolt the provided sprocket to the 1.875" bolt circle, also on the wheel. The axle material must be supplied by the teams.

If you want to drive the wheel via a key or hex stock, you'll need to buy or manufacture a separate hub.
