Thanks guys for the input. On my Flyers Flywheel I also use countersunk screws. The holes are probably elongated anyhow by now so I should have some work fixing that.
But…
My question was, would it be very unwise if I just fit the chains and ride the bike as it is? It has just a couple of mm play both axial as lateral. I simply do not have the time/parts to fix it now. And for all I know, I have been riding around like this for years… Or not.
What could go wrong? In the worst case scenario all rivets would sheer off and I would have no drive left. Or could there be casing damage?
Any ideas/experience on that?
