Ooh nice! I'll have a look later on me proper computer ( currently on me Raspberry ).

 

[Agency_Scum]

Ah, now I can see them better. Not quite what I was after for my super-old restoration, sorry M Fromage. Excellent wheels though.

 

[legrandefromage]

not even with reproduction red gold transfers instead of the current ones?

 

[clownfish]

might be interested - could you confirm the rear axle width / between dropouts?

cheers

I think these are 130mm

I think these are 130mm

hmm, looking at my frame I think I can s-t-r-e-t-c-h to 126mm, but 130 would be just too tight I'm afraid.

cheers anyway.

 

[legrandefromage]

well - going outside and measuring found them to be under 130, at a guess around 126- ish but its difficult to tell as the cogs get in the way.

I apologise for what I'm about to say next -

unless a frame is of some exotic inflexible material, a stretch of 2mm either side is hardly the end of the bloody world and I think too much bullshit surrounds fitting of wheels with different axle widths... :roll:

 

[clownfish]

... too much bullshit ...

hey I don't disagree, but this (531 Carlton) frame here measures less than 120 'at rest'. I've tried an old steel-rimmed 5-speed wheel which was measured at 126 -- exotic material or not, it was as much as my weedy biceps could manage to make the stays accept it. I don't really want to use heat and/or some more serious permanent persuasion (let alone - shudder - the gym).

meanwhile - you have PM.
