Reliable rear wheel?

[DMR]

Hey could you guys suggest some True-spinning rear wheel and sprocket combos for me? One that doesn't wobble or throw chains? Preferably around 6 inches. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Use kart wheels, hubs, and sprockets. The made for minibike stuff is junk.

How about Manco rims, I always have good luck with them.

good wheels?

So you are saying there is such a thing.
What I would give for GOOD WHEEL SPROCKET COMBO.

Mac, nice tanks on your avatar.
Did you fab them? What material.

I don't know if he fabbed them, but they are aluminum.

Would like to get my hands on one of those gems.
Been thinking of fab-in one up out of stainless.

The way I look at it is that there are millions of minibikes that came with very serviceable rear wheel assemblies. The hubs don't just break, the rims are good forever if not crashed or rusted through, 3/4" axle is as big in diameter as a lot of motorcycles and the bearings are a good compromise between cost and longevity, the sprockets are generally not hardened but adequate in as much as they are always of large diameter. What I have seen too often is a miss-match of hub-sprocket adapter-sprocket. Sprocket run-out seems to be a constant problem, but that was never a problem with the 'cheap' stock stuff when they left the factory. Nor, as far as I have experienced, is it a problem with the stuff currently commonly available.
