will it do the same thing when i pedal? or should it be okay.........the whole thing seems fine but i haven't pedaled yet as i need the spacer for the chainwheel. :-\

we've all been there before, when i built my retro quad earlier this year the two i got with my profiles were too short so had to get a mate to machine me one to the right length! pain in the ass... quic tap with a socket extension and itll pop out again... you can do it in your lunch break :LolLolLolLol:
pickle:
