this might actually be a 'feature'...the wheels will serve as a sort of clutch, keeping the motor from seeing any shock loads. no worries about sheared teeth or broken chains; to much load, and the wheels slip. additionally, with that big wheel turning all those smaller wheels, they're gonna have a lot of angular momentum when that gets up to speed, with comparatively little weight.
