4" Mecanum Wheels - Chief Delphi

All I know is I have fun building a robot, and I have fun competing with it. If I get an award, I'm happy. If I don't, then too bad. Either way, I'm coming back next year. - Tom Bottiglieri [more]

Edit: never mind apparently tbey appear to be rated for 200lbs but i don't know if that aplies to all the different sizes or not

The VEXpro 4" mecanum wheels are rated for FRC weights.
