edscoble-
Giving the cost, you might as well sell the Plug for the Plug 1 that have 120mm spacing (cantis).
@edscoble fair point but i cba to sell my bike and buy another one when i like it fine like it is, except for the busted wheel.
But this did cause me to flick through the Charge line up and wtf were they thinking with the 135mm OLD on a single speed? I can't see the Plug 0 frame anywhere else in the line up with gears on it so wtf was the point?
and, as documented elsewhere, they forgot to drill any mudguard fixings on it.
and, they told me back in May that all this would be sorted for the 2017 line up... of which there is no sign...
get it together, you lot....

Thanks - i've been struggling to decide on the best way forward. The build with Surly hubs and xr22T is appealing, but the cost is almost what the whole bike cost new (Charge Plug 0).
The rear spacing means that there isn't really a budget option so I'm tempted to bite the bullet and go with the Surly hubs.
Next thing i need to decide is do i also take the opportunity to go tubeless...?
i will decide tomorrow.
thanks for replying to my email as well.
