I’m guessing that tightens against the wheel and pulley bearing with the wheel fitted. That wouldn’t’t worry me if so as the bearing’s doing all the hard work.

I wouldn't worry about it either, because I'm not riding it.

It's basically and idler pulley.. it only transfers rotation to the wheel...it doesn't carry any load...ill keep and eye on it...

At cruising speed there isn't much force on the pulley....it's not like a wheel bearing holding up 1300 pounds...and when I go around corners at 2.76 G you're talking about the weight of and entire bush elephant bearing down on the bearing...
