To ask the really stupid question, if i just stick the 5mm spacer in and the wheel is then off-centre by 2.5mm is that a big deal? I cycle 5-10 miles per day around London, and knock out an 80 miler once or twice a year.
measure inward 3mm from the end of the axle... that is what your weight will be riding on... a 45 degree chamfer and a nice sharp thread or two.
Get The Longer Axle and 5mm Spacer Installed.
if you don't.. An Aluminum Frame will be ruined.. a Steel Frame will ruin the axle and the frame.
