Re: 8" wheelchair hubs and 25 tooth sprockets
I'll check it out. I think I can use the newer wide skyway 8" pneumatic wheels with the keyed hub, then mate a smallish sprocket (say 14 to 16 tooth) and use that as a bolt-on hub/flange to mount a larger aluminum sprocket. That would avoid a lot of steel. Maybe even go-ped or pocket-bike wheels would work.

I remember those hub adapters from 2001 - we used 'em. I don't know if that was a Small Parts special or something from Skyway.
