The belt comes VERY close to the front large pulley but it doesnt really touch, ive got a oneway on the way so i will be changing it therefore im not too fussed about that, the bearing shafts between the bulkheads run nice and smooth without the belts on, so do the main bearing holders, hmmm not to sure whats goin on here, maybe when the new bearings come itl run a bit more smoothly, oh thats another thing, it doesnt feel smooth, its quite jerky, is yours guys ones very smooth??
Ace i think that you are just fine it's normal that there is no play The free play will be added when you add the wheels ( havent tried it yet xD ) The wheels are the one that have rotational inertia Also for the belt coming very closely you can go to page 127-128 to see our discussion. Today though i found that i had tightened the screws of the solid axle spool to much and the toched the belt so make sure you wont do the same mistake ! Also the belt doesnt feel very smooth to me to. Idk since i started the building i really enjoyed it but it turns out it's quite tricky ..
Could anyone else confirm that my bag will be ok cause i dont want to open it to show 3racing their mistake if it's faulty ..
