I don't see a reason why it wouldn't work, but I'd probably go with a couple of the #25 sprockets instead of one of the #35 doubles. I'm pretty sure buying an adapter plus two of the VexPro sprockets is cheaper than getting a single sprockets from AM or Tetrix (although I suppose those have the advantage of just dropping in).

The biggest advantage of the AM sprocket is not having to rely on a set screw to transmit torque from the motor output shaft. AM found the slit + collar clamp method that IceStorm mentioned to be more reliable, which is what that sprocket operates on.
