It's completely COTS and would let you use 4", 6", or really any other size wheel anywhere on the drivetrain -- which is big for teams with few resources.
General specs:
2"x1"x.125" aluminum tube
AndyMark Toughbox-Mini gearbox (alum plate cut down slightly)
17t #25 Team 221 dual sprocket

Yes, we've done this. The 1/8" total drop is "shared" equally between the outside and inside axles.
In fact, our entire setup is very similar to this, with only a couple differences:
-- we used 2x1.5x.125 tube
-- we used VexPro 16t #25 sprockets
