    Finding a Custom Sprocket for an Electric Motor Bike

    I have an electric motor that I want to use with a bike chain and not the small chain that is already on it. Using cad and getting a custom sprocket made might be the way to go, but finding a site that sells them would be more than likely be cheaper. I found that it is called a dual-d boreand is...
