There have been a few failures of the Azusa nose wheel, more so with 
heavy weighted XL models.
Some Azusa castings that have a "Do not exceed (x) mph" warning with a 
value that is much lower than the normal touchdown speed of the Velocity.
Still - there are many, many Velocity aircraft in normal service with 
the Azusa nose wheel.
The Matco wheel is definitely the better wheel (stronger, rated for 
higher speeds).
