RE: rear tire

I have had mine off three or four times and have never noticed the notch. This made me revert to the manual. The manual does not say anything about a notch on the spacers nor does it say anything about making sure you install the spacers any certain way.

RE: rear tire

I noticed the little V notch too on both the front and rear wheel axles.
Hold on, let me take a look...

"You know you're a redneck, when you're sitting at your computer upstairs in the spare bedroom, and can lean over and pick up both front and rear axles from your bike to check out the spacers."

Yep, looks like a notch on both that are on the stupid end (The end without the threads).
I put em back on asI took em off, but not sure if they needed to face any certain direction. Can't see why they would.
