Wrong size OLD in aluminium/carbon frame

Posted on
  • I have an old carbon & aluminium LOOK, the type with carbon tubes and aluminium lugs and dropouts. I recently knackered the rear wheel and have been offered a reasonably priced replacement set.

    The problem is that the OLD of the existing wheel is 126mm and the new one is 130mm.

    It seems like quite a bad idea splaying the aluminium, but there is a bit of lateral movement and it is only 4mm.

    Whaddaya reckon?

  • Thats 2mm per side. It'll be fine.
