this may be a daft question, but should you be able to see straight through a fitted HT crank? Or should the crank set have come with some caps to plug in the end?

The crankset (SLX from Wiggle) didn't come with caps?

    Which is also a typically hollow black plastick thing, so yea, you can see straight through.
