I’ve got a frame spaced at 140mm, with standard dropouts. rather than buy a QR disc hub and squeeze it to 135, I was thinking of buying a 142 x 12 through axle rear hub and using an axle to convert it to QR, ie: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lixada-12mm-to-9mm-QR-Adapter-MTB-Bike-Thru-Axle-Hub-Quick-Release-142mm-P2K7-/164717292723?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286
Could anything go wrong?
Which frame is it? Is it supposed to be 140mm from the factory?
Yeah, it’s a tandem frame
