New MK3 kit build - Bondtech bearing missing a roller
I'm about half way through my kit build and found that one of the two Bondtech idler gear bearings is missing one of its rollers (the metal pin). I checked the parts bag to see if it had fallen out but I couldn't find it. I installed it anyway and the idler seems to spin freely. Do you think this will be ok? If not, I can temporarily borrow one of the idlers off the MMU on my other printer.

I dont see why it wouldn't work temporarily.
It might cause some slight lobing on the tensioner.
I don't think the deviation would be enough to cause any issues.
One way to find out though!
