With the adapter no where that I know of... But you can get them with just the hex at a hardware store.

You'll have to press the sprocket on, read the manual

That's completely normal for spline cranks without pinch bolts. You want it to be as tight as possible in fact

is this right? the spacer is big enough, do the ends of the wedge cluster stick out a little or am I doing something wrong? i followed the instructions and watched jim bauer install twombolts in a video.

From my limited knowledge of Odyssey cranks & just watching the video, it looks pretty good.

Yes that's fine. More important is spacer thickness as you mentioned. If you haven't; remove the bolt, how close is the spindle to contacting the underside of the bolt? you dont want the spindle to bottom out on the bolt. or the bolt to bottom out on the spindle however you want to think about it.

I don't think any drop bars come in a 22.2 clamp diameter.
