But as discussed Jack, that isn't the biggest issue, the main issue is the 8mm dropout size. As an example, tonight, I couldn't even remove the wheel from my dropout without being more forceful than I'd have liked......using a hammer to knock the axle back towards the opening of the dropout.
Obviously this is without the frame being cold set. If there is a simple solution to the 8mm dropouts - which I doubt. I'd be all up for using 120mm spaced hubs.
