I have another another question about the frame: Will the rear dropouts take a 135mm hub without spreading them apart?
thanks for the safety concern, yea i had to put on gloves, goggles, facial shield, mask haha extra protection.
For this particular frame, its a rear 135mm. If you happen to have a 130mm hub i find it better and safer as i only need to diy add a few spacers (probably 5x 1mm thickness) and try center the wheel to the frame/braking. With aluminium (the stiffness nature of it) dont force them to space out as they are not like steel. Forcing a 5mm i personally have a fear of safety issue in run long as the strain might cause some critical failure.
