I'll check that.
I noticed, that the rear dropouts are spaced 130mm. So maybe a 135mm hub is not the best choice. I'm playing with the idea of lacing something to Sturmey Archer Track hubs (they come with a 130mm conversion kit), which would give me the fix/free choice.
Spacing in the rear triangle:
Seatstays: At the height of the brake bridge: 60mm. between the U-Brake studs: 70mm
Chainstays: 60-ish mms at the same distance from the dropout as the u-brake studs are on the seatstays.
Could get a little tight with 62mm tires...
Well, 50mm then. Or I'll just wait and see how big they come out?
