I am buying a Riese & Mueller bike with a Bosch Performace mid-drive.
A variety of youtube videos illustrate how to change the output drive sprocket, the object that on an unpowered bike would be a chainring, but here is a much smaller, steel sprocket. The sprocket is attached via splines with a locknut.
This sprocket looks (superficially) like a sprocket on a freehub cassette, or possibly on a freewheel (yes, I'm old enough to have dismantled freewheels).
Does anyone know if the hole and spline pattern is compatible with the sprockets from any manufacturer's freehub cassettes? That is to say, could I substitute a sprocket from out of a split-apart cassette? Or the same for any manufacturer's freewheel, could I substitute a sprocket from the outside of a dismantled freewheel?
