I take it you have brackets coming down from that frame to hold the mecanum wheels? Any reason you didn't try to have them integrated into the frame?
Modularity?

I'm very impressed that this is a second year team! If your frame and wheels are any indication of what is to come, I am expecting some cool stuff from this team. Team 357 and 1595 are also well known for making their own mechanum wheels. Make sure you're using some sort of suspension! Unless you have perfect weight distro or your frame is not warped at all you'll want a simple bolt+spring suspension to keep all wheels perfectly on the ground.

Awesome stuff, and way to document it properly. Cool beans.
