Hi,
Just confusing myself with rear hub spacing...
I have a road frame(130mm rear) in which these: http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/product.asp?pf_id=20856&src=froogle fit ok. However I can't seem to find what spacing these hubs are. I guess they are 130mm?
I am looking to upgrade to something like this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SURLY-SINGLE-SPEED-HUB-fixed-freewheel-135mm-32h-SILVER_W0QQitemZ250502338166QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_sportsleisure_cycling_bikeparts_SR?hash=item3a531a5676 but is the 135mm spacing too wide? I guess that is measured from the end of the spacers (black bit where it would contact the frame)?- Is this what is called the O.L.D. measurement? Sorry for my poor explanation.
If I were to win the lottery and go for something like godtec hubs what spacing would I choose on there web site for my road frame? They have a choice of 120mm, 126,130,135. Im guessing 130...
Thanks for any clarification...
Tim
