no. you need to take your BB out. now would be the most awesomest time to use as an excuse for a new tool.

the adapter is clamped between the frame and the lip of the BB cup. the right sided cup is not really meant to be cranked down on either....that is why i said the whole guard has a tendency to rotate. mine did. there is just not much of a clamping force to stop it. especially if you hit something. however, it i still functional until you can get a frame with tabs.

just had a brain fart. if you can get some of the green loctite stuff for press fit apps, you might be able to put a little bit on those joining surfaces to sort of temporarily bond it.
