  • Sounds like a fun BMX! Was yours 120mm spaced? The reason I wonder if my foldy bike can manage a 6/7 is because the dropouts are spaced at 130mm. Or am I being daft?

  • If my memory serves correctly, it was originally 110mm OLN and I set it to something around 125mm with a 5mm axle spacer NDS and 10mm on the drive side - including the NDS spacer was an attempt to avoid excessive dishing. I know I tried different approaches - before setting the frame I removed the smallest sprocket, and although the next (4th) sprocket didn't foul the stays, the chain did.
    I could be wrong about the sizes - it was around five years ago and I've slept since then. Can you lay hands on the 6 speed from Decathlon and measure their hub?
