Whoa, my OCD meter just pegged. 😳
Definitely equalize those to prevent your warranty from being voided. Until then I would not ride your bike less someone should spot the inequity!

I don't know how long I could ignore that. Sometimes, I can put it off and ignore it. Sometimes I can't and it has to be fixed or sold

@NoRegerts So far today you've ridden to the pool supply store and to get milk. There was about a 30 mile detour coming back to the house.

Now you're about to clean and polish the wheels.
