This video really helped me with my project. I only wish the author added some info and links in the description. But it is a good video and I appreciate the shared knowledge, thanks! (liked, subscribed, saved).
You did the welding to make a mini bike, so are you going to make a new go kart out of steel you know weld one up for yourself. You definitely know what you are doing with your projects. Nice work.
You have to use a keyed shaft. If you don't there's nothing locking the wheels or the sprocket into the axle so you likely have a scenario where the shaft or sprocket is spinning freely but you're not moving. You could weld the wheels and sprocket to the shaft but the heat might warp it then you'll have alot of vibration and it would be a nightmare to change the wheels if needed. You could go the route of a dead axle cart then your shaft doesn't move and you have the sprocket attached directly to one wheel only and the wheel itself has a bearing and not the whole shaft. It's much cheaper but doesnt' do so well if you go offroad as traction sucks.

Does it matter if you use a keyed shaft?
