For road cranks + road BB width you shouldn't need (and shouldn't use) any spacers. You only use them for MTB cranks with road BB width IIRC.
But I have experienced the same thing as you. You have to torque the crank bolt incredibly hard, I think it needs 40 Nm!
It's a crap system IMO. HTii is better.

Glacial pace updates.
Got some cheapy wheels so I can ride the thing,

Question for you clever folks. Is it likely I require some spacers for the crankset as there is about 5-8mm movement from side to side once fully tightened?
