Top tier post there, thank you so much.
Totally fascinating to hear an honest account of the process. Massive kudos to you for going through the pain and learning to get it done yourself. Also kudos for saying you wouldn't do it again!
I am at 126mm and want to go to 130mm. Points 1 and 8 seem to resonate with me. I am upset that I won't have your quiet admiration but, in absentia, I can manage without it.
Does anyone know how a bike shop can do this quickly and easily? What specialist tooling would they use?
@hillbilly is this something that Brixton Cycles can and do do?
