Bit off topic.. But it is a sngle speed :-p
Having just recently fished the rebuild of my Raleigh twenty-esque cycle. I've encountered some problems.
I bought a new set of bmx alloy wheels for it, which I thought were the same size as the originals.
After fitting them the reach on the calipers doesn't seem anywhere near long enough. The front looks to be about 95-100mm and the rear is over 105mm.
Is there Any way to cure this or any extra long callipers I can get to remedy it?
