  • Wrong way round, unfortunately - the hub's too big for the frame, not too small! 130mm is standard road size with calliper brakes. Standard road disc size is 135mm.

  • Aaah, I see! I'm pretty sure I couldn't fit them in. It's a squeeze getting it in with the extra 2.5mm each side. Could be worth a shot though - I've got a bunch of 0.5mm spacers about the right size in the tool box...

  • Just tried it. With a 1mm spacer drive side and x2 1mm spacers non drive, I can get it so that it fits. Except. There's very little of the nubbin that hooks into the drop outs on the non drive side, and the disc isn't parallel with the calliper. That'd screech loud enough to kill those faint of heart if I happened to brake near them...

    Would also have the problem that losing a spacer if I took the wheel out to fix a flat would result in carrying a bike to the nearest train station.
