Hi guys,
I have this knocking on the flywheel, it's normal?

It's a Sprint Veloce, it got seize immediately after rebuilt and I managed to unseize it while running.

By the way I have also a knocking on the rear hub, and I feel it on my thumb on the videowhat do you think it is?

rearhub doesn't sound like it is torqued in all the way.

Flywheel? I'm not sure. Can you confirm that i was torqued into spec as well?
IDK... if it is torqued correctly then I am at a loss.

Flywheel looks like it might be loose on the hub. I had a similar situation earlier this year when 7 of the 8 rivets sheared off. In your case you might be able to get away with just peening the rivets again.

Sounds completely out of balance!
They DO NOT SHEAR OFF!
Did you lap in the flywheel onto the shaft?
Have you done a run-out test to see if it is spinning round squarely
