    My bad, I had it backwards. Hold the bbv lever down.

    Great. Moar money. And I type this as I am sitting on the shoulder on the highway with a flat tire from someone slashing my back tire. Oh what a day.

    Can I try that useless zzp trick to change the position of the shaft? Or just get a new bbv
