Tao Raptor200 upgrade sprocket/hub

Hey guys,

So I got a Raptor a few weeks back, been really enjoying it when I took it out. Brought it up to the cottage 2 weekends, first weekend was phenominal. Second weekend I was excited because I was nearing the 200km mark for breaking in the engine and I was itching to push the throttle more than halfway.
I had to finish the gas tank and I would have been over 200km.

Anyways, while riding up a smooth hill, no sticks or rocks or anything like that, and suddenly I heard a click and the wheels stopped accelerating. I luckily was ~10 feet from he top of the hill so I jumped off and pushed it up. Upon inspection I found that the motor is driving the chain, but the sprocket on the back axle was no longer turning the axle.

I havent taken it apart yet, but I think I stripped either the sprocket, or the sprocket hub. I would like to get an upgraded part that wont break in under 20 hours of use. Where would be the place I could get upgraded sprocket parts? Ive heard of whygostock.com here on the forums, would they be a good recommendation?

Located in Canada, if it matters.
