What are you talking about your wheel is a red rod by gray rod by gray rod by a red rod, and mine is red red gray gray red red so mine is bigger.

ok... So it's a wheel. Which is not circle shaped by the way. And it rolls. Now what? I think you need to add a bit more extra stuff to it, just a knex wheel is a bit pointless. Oh, and it isn't round so maybe you could improve that.
