You can grind down or remove the dust cap, or grind out the sprocket hole a bit.

Wow thanks for the quick reply. What do you prefer ? I would think a lot more maintenance if there were no dust cap ?
I just ordered a micargi mustang gts in flat black. Love the look of the bike... Oh yeah and I ordered an extra chain due to the stretch.

I usually just grind off the flange from the cap, and it still seals the bearing fine.

Whichever way allows it to sit centered the best. I usually have to remove and modify dust caps on my coaster brake builds. Cranbrooks need this mod but I'm not sure about other hubs. Try to keep the sprocket centered on the hub as it tightens down.
