Does no one make <25t sprockets anymore?

Hit up empire, a while back Primo didn't sell 10 tooth drivers on their own so when I let empire know I was looking for one they ordered a hub with a 10 tooth driver and sold me just the driver even though in the long run they either have to find someone only looking for a hub shell or replace it with a 9 tooth driver and sell it complete. Another reason why tom and tinas team are A+.

Still pretty sure Flatland fuel is the way to go. Think you can get Flatware sprockeys for your cranks, might be super small though.

This is what I was going to suggest!
I have an animal 23 tooth on one of my cruisers with 23/9. It rides pretty good.
*I will 2nd the wish of having more 10tooth options for modern freecoasters.

I am building up a 22", and it looks like I want to go with a 23-9, but I cannot find a 23t sprocket anywhere.

I used to remind people about 55-ish gear inches being the classic gear ratio for bmx.
44 / 16 X 20 = 55
25 / 9 X 20 = 55.5
But, it really seems like everyone who switches to slightly stouter gearing has no interest in going back.
So, for 22"s, I'd really suggest you just go with 25/9 X 22". It's slightly less than 28 / 9 X 20".
28 / 9 X 20 = 62.2
25 / 9 X 22 = 61.1 gear inches
My 22" flatland build (in progress) next to 24" Tribute flatland
1996 Hoffman Taj and Stout 22
Indust Cuatro 24" and Idust 2ton 22" (with 28/9)
Pepper's 20", 22", and 24":
Eggit2:
I never liked 28/9 on my 20", 28/10 always felt pretty good to me. The 23/9 on the 22" is pretty darn close. Everything is in the mail now, and I am super excited.
