Being the obliging dad that I am, I fired it up for a few seconds. It wasn't 'til later, when I began to install the rear wheel, that I realized the preload had locked itself into the new unloaded position. A one man job turned into two as I called my son back to the garage to lower the front enough to mount the rear wheel again.
