I have been reading this thread “Belt drive Sprockets on the Cheap!” and did not see any mass production solutions.

Has any one done any 3D printing of large pulleys?????
I need some for using “large-as-possible-diameter” (over 100 teeth?) 8mm Gates GT2 or 3 belts to drive the brake side with disc brake. Or a sprocket drive like below photo.
I need to slow the bike down to about 17mph to get enough power at 1500 watts when moving 400 or more pounds up a 9 % grade.
Some one here should be doing that or at least adapters for existing pulleys. Or some other way to mass produce adapters to attach a belt pulley to the inner-side of the disc mount, off set enough to clear the brake so it can still be used (and also use 2” tires).
