    Why I chose fairly big wheels - I gave it some thought and I see some advantages:

    - A larger wheel makes more contact with a surface than a smaller one
    - The rolling circumference is larger, so a higher top speed is achieved for same RPM and more control at low speed
    - Larger wheel can flex more shock/energy absorption
    - Allows more flexibility in mounting position so in theory with correct design the ride height could be adjusted

    In all my designs I intend to use the biggest wheels I can get away with for the above reasons.
