Thanks. May I ask, with 130mm spacing at the rear, have you been able to use the frame with a disc? If so, how?
Sorry about all the questions. I'm trying to work out what my best fixed wheel frame option is for next year.
(PS Nice bike!)

All Zipp discs have track threading on one side so slot right in without having to change anything.

You just need a couple of 5mm washers that you stick on the axle. I did ride a disc earlier in the year where I completely removed the axle and put a longer one + cup and cones in. It's not that much of a bodge, I can get basically any gear I want and just have a few chains. Normally 104-112" unless I'm on a fast course in which case up to 117"

Yes, originally a geared P2C with a trashed front hanger which I modified and got resprayed. No problem with the cranks/chainrings or rear wheel, but obviously you have to space them out to 130mm rather than 120mm.
