Does anyone have any suggestions for sources of better quality #25 sprockets other than AM?

AM is the only person in the market that sells sprockets in #25 in aluminum. Maybe some other supplier might, WCP will in the distant future

But for now, you could send them back? We've called AM a few times for random misc. problems, they've been so kind to ship out replacements ASAP.

Instead of buying them you could router/laser/waterjet them from .118 or .125 plate and then chamfer them yourself? Do you have access to a CNC machine or do you have sponsors that own them?
