| I had this on a sprocket carrier (unknown make).
I fastidiously measured it against the original sprocket and found that the position of the big circlip groove was a couple of mm different the position on the OEM sprocket.
As a result, the circlip did not hold the sprocket carrier tightly against the "hub" (cast pentagon bit). This allowed the sprocket carrier and sprocket to float as you describe.
No amount of tightening cush drive bolts or 42mm retaining nut will improve the float.
I didn't feel comfortable with this situation so I got my money back and shelled out on a quality STM carrier.
