I changed up the stem, pedals, and saddle (which I boofed the angle on). Took forever to de-sticker all the warning labels and then added some of my own.

Mine has a little play in the front hub bearing I can't get out but not noticeable when you ride.

I like it! What's the saddle you've got on there?

On the wheel? Unless there's a hub around the BB that I don't know about, then no. I've seen the BB it's self jiggle, which is what's causing the crankset to jiggle. It's actually not moving that much at all, maybe a centimeter at most, but it does get amplified due to slack in my chain that it's causing.
