After putting a lock nut on that side it now spins freely. It is a sweet ride.
The paint is still soft, sitting a bit in my sunroom will help harden it some but I have never found spray paint to be particularly hard.
I also changed the 49t chainring to a 48t and the 16t cog to an18t


I now have an Acorn small front bag on it.
you did such a great job i should have paid you to redo the bike for me and btw if you get to feeling generous send me the chain ring and/or cog
