I've got myself set on an old Alan frame, so 126 OLD, but I'd like to keep my shimano 600 hubs.
Logically I could take 4mm off the Nds, to keep the cassette to dropout spacing Correct, redish the wheel and cut down the axle, hey presto 8speed on 126 OLD.
Anyone see any issues, apart from it being a bit fiddly?
