One of the bearings on the 20mm pulleys was needing replaced, so between finding a good deal on the 30mm kit, and the perceived necessity I'm now twiddling thumbs. I honestly think this is fixable, but don't think it's going to be something I want to continue pursuit with.



I've considered putting the 20mm pulley kit back on with all new bearings, because the 30mm crank pulley should protrude further than it does, and I shouldn't have to shim them 2mm for proper alignment. The bearings shouldn't be sloppy when under this type of tension, either brand new or after 10k miles.



Now the question for me is whether to get the Jackson kit or figure out a turbo kit that doesn't melt after a 20 minute track session.
