Not compatible with existing wheels (versapattern/1.875 hexagonal bolt pattern) and no cheap hex options. Additionally, #40 chain is physically thicker than bike chain making the sprockets incompatible.

I've seen teams mount disks to the 1.875 hole pattern adapters so that's a pretty good starting point. It's a pretty simple thing to execute and is not necessary for most games so it would be too specialized IMO.
It would also be cool to see versablocks to mount to standard lumber sizes to make prototype and otherwise cheap robots easier.
