The new cart for the PAs is using the 30cm, I have had good feedback from guys using that size.

So you think 49 cm is overkill?

It's not the width that they spec thats the issue - it's the height. The 49cm wheel is something like 20 inches high! You have to balance width with height - I think the 30cm is probably the best option at just under 12 inches in diameter.
