Thanks for that Xmilosx

I was speaking to a guy who runs a FG/SS online shop, and he said i could buy some axel spacers to space out a rear wheel to 130mm? Would this work ?

Any opinions on these? Look good for the price... Sealed bearings, can choose the hub width... Quite heavy tho:

Sword is finally done. I'll open a separate thread with the build once I get some pics. Rolls very nicely and it's perfect fit. Thanks for all the help!

yeah track hubs are, but the distance between the dropouts on the frame is 130mm. slight problem. im sure there's other wheels that have that spacing size. just gotta look. i guess.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
