did that,
cold-set to 130mm,
made the dropouts parallel again,
got an old hanger from another crashed frame brazed on,
full external housing with zip-tiesgo on, if you like to, i wouldn't necessarily recommend, but if you already have most of the stuff, do it, it will work
the only inconvenience i have is the back brake, because of using mini-vs and their little tolerances in setting up, taking the wheel in and out is a little more time consuming, so the breakpads are aligned
still love it
some more little input on the spacing part,
a lot of old hubs can be re-spaced, usually there is a spacer on the nondrive-side, you can take out or replace,
you should dish the rim afterwards and maybe have to shorten the axle

hello pomp owners.
7 speed pomp
if i buy:
7 speed wheel
7 speed screw on freewheel
7 speed mech
7 speed friction shifter (bar mounted)
7 speed chain
track end mech hanger adapter
cable ties
external cable housing
i should be able to squeeze the 126mm spaced wheel into my 120mm spaced frame with some muscle and have gears on a pompino
has anyone done this? am i overlooking something
