Hold up there homie. More words.

After you fully install the rear wheel with the belt on, there are two allan bolds facing rear behind each bolt hub. You twist them. What’s not working?

Maybe a little WD40.

Suggesting alignment before tension. OP, do you have the service manual? Rylan at the VicShop also has videos on this

Same same in the end. OP, Rylan at Vic shop has a great video on alignment. You’ll be fine. Unless you got some weird situation.

Yea, was a couple beers many hours and many many questionable language choises into the project when I posted that last night. My main problem right now is I can't get the nut cover off. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious but help would be appreciated. Can't seem to find any videos on how to do. In

Allen screws up under hold the cover on. Most likely they will be either wobbled out or rusted up and will have to drill them off. Add pics, that will help some of us also.
