Surly’s 130mm and 135mm both run the same chain line. Spacers won’t change this. I’ve spaced out solid axle hubs but if you put spacers on bolt on hubs you’d be putting more stress on the bolts, no?
Edit: beaten to it. Do remember that it’s 53.5mm for single speed but around 52mm for fixed. I’ve just been through it myself.

Couldn't find a suitable thread to post this in.
I have an old MTB frame and want to run it fixed, it is 135mm spacing. I have found a surly new hub on ebay, it is 130mm.
I am wondering, is the hub the same as the 135 with added spacers? So could I re-space the axle to 135 and the chainline would be ok?
