Problem - bit convoluted. Much annoyance.
Back in Feb last year, I bought a Charge Plug 0 (2016 model). Apart from having no mudguard mounting points on the back, it also has 135mm spacing at the back. Why? F*ck knows.
The OEM wheel is dead now. I've got a new pair of wheels build onto Surly hubs. As its 135mm at the back, I had the back wheel built onto a 135mm hub.
Mistake. The original rear wheel was a 120mm hub respaced. So now, not only is the chainline shit, but the freewheel fouls the chainstay.
****!
No choice but to get the rear wheel built onto a different hub? Just buy a new bike?
What shall I do?!
