Default New KH Hub, defective??


I just recieved a new KH Hub for the muni I am building and right away,
the orientation of the crank arms looked kinda "off", like they were
not quite at 12 and 6 o'clock. I tried moving them to different
positions on the splines and to the other side, but the odd orientation
remained. In the attached photos, I illustrated this "gap" by
placing both crank arms on the splines at the 12 0'clock position on a
flat surface.

I think this looks like more than just a slight manufacturing error, I
guess I expected more from KH??
Anyone seen this before? What do you think?
Should I ask for a replacement hub/crank arms??

definitely ask for a replacement; you payed for a top of the line hub,
and to settle for less would be an insult to your intelligence.
