DC gear suggestion for a relatively heavy robot

We are using a arduino board/motor shield for control, wondering what would be the best

motor to get if the robot is over 15-20lbs (12V).

Thanks!

You can get an estimate of the torque and rpm needed using this tool:

Using these values and the nominal voltage, see if any gear motors meet on exceed those needs here:
