    On my onza trials 20" unicycle, down by the crank, there is a little
    saucer thing between the crank and frame....it can now spin freely
    instead of staying in place. Is this bad? Kelly.

    Heres a pic.

    No, don't worry, it's not a problem. It is merely a spacer.

    Yeah, its not broken it stays in place because the crank wedges it on so
    just tighten your cranks and it should stop spinning
    EDIT well nevermind because you just posted as i was typing😄

    it shouldn't be screwed up, i mean, theres still so much surface contact
    even if it's not totally tight, it shouldn't move on the splines unless
    it's WAY off
    make sure you tighten it a bunch, but make sure the main cap holders are
    stillin the right place
    you might want to take the frame off, tighten the cranks, then put the
    frame back on

    o yeah, don't (if you're ever reassembling totally) put one crank on,
    tighten it a lot, then put the other one on, you could pull the axle
    through the hub
    instead, tighten both cranks to a medium spot, then fully tighten each
