Originally would have had 120mm spaced wheels - these are 126mm. Is it fine to just tighten them and ride them? I was told that spacers would slip.
From this
It looks as though there are quite a lot of spacers on the axle, can you remove some to get back to 120mm? If not then I wouldn't see there being much issue with running them at 126 and spreading the frame slightly to fit them in.

Could do with some advice please
Front brake - no clearance for any of the calipers I have - any ideas?
No clearance for my mudguards is frustrating.
