I don't have much experience with cranksets and bottom brackets so these may seem like basic questions. I figured I could just remove the stock crankset and install the Riken and I'd be good to go, however the spindle on the Riken is too long and the non drive side crank arm won't seat against the BB. I've read through some old threads and saw references to a wavy washer, is this what I need? I do have an FSA BB: http://www.amazon.com/...Washer/dp/B001GSSIUE
It doesn't seem like this washer is thick enough to fill the gap, are there spacers I would need as well? Do the spacers go between the crank arm and BB, or between the BB and bike frame?
Do I need a spacer for the drive side as well? When I pull the drive side tight against the BB - as it would be if everything was tightened down - it doesn't spin cleanly. There are some bolt heads or something on the inside of the drive side crank arm assembly that are rubbing against the BB creating a bit of a wobble.
One more thing, I assume I need a BB removal tool to install the Quarq's magnet ring between the BB and frame? There are quite a few BB removal tools on Amazon, can anyone recommend one for an FSA BB?
Thanks for the help.
