Mark probably did it already, but I'll suggest that he make sure to check the width without the wheel clamped in the dropouts.
Enjoy!
Thanks for all the info. I have decided to get the rear hub serviced at the LBS so I can use the same wheel set. While the bike is in the shop, they will install a new freewheel, derailleurs, and bar end shifters. I have ordered the Brooks saddles, drop handlebar for the front, cruiser bar for the back, Schwalbe Marathon tires, tubes, etc.
After I get the bike back together I will check the six year olds position on the stoker seat to see if crank shorteners will work. That is a great idea I had not thought of.
