I've heard this before but mine didn't include said thin washer (first batch, pre-ordered at empire at the time, still going strong). I've coke can shimmed it before but running a loose sprocket bolt is less of a hassle.

I think the spacey came included after that first batch. I think they may have sent them out to folks who requested one, or reported the issue v

The sprocket bolt boss doesn't have to touch the sprocket you know gents

Switching to splined drive sprockets was the best thing Ive done on my BMX for years, one less headache.

UPDATE:
Problem solved. I swapped my 28t Fang for a 25t C512 and all is well. I prefer the taller gearing, but this runs much smoother and I was able to eliminate a half-link and move my wheel back a smidge which fixed the brake clearance problem I had.
I posted this at the beginning of the thread to save you all some scrolling.

My Keychain does the exact same thing. It kind of wanders on top of the sprocket teeth where it "enters the sprocket", never had a drivetrain feel this bad :(. I really like the master link but so far it has not been good to me.
