Pulling the weights towards the center does actually create torque. As the weight moves from one radius to another, its velocity is no longer completely tangent and now there's a force component in the direction of its velocity which accelerates it.
Dunno how clear the picture is, but really, it's pretty simple geometry and you can verify it yourself.
