Re: 8" Mecanum wheels and KOP wheel brackets
The width of the KOP bracket isn't really wide enough to hold the wheel WITH a sprocket and chain. We had to cut it wider and also bend it out a bit, which took a lot of the strength out of it. It worked fine for a prototype, but I would suggest making your own brackets for your final robot.
