When I got the frame I measured the drop out spacing and found the rear was 126mm and the forks were around 91mm. I had thought that everything road was 100mm front and 130mm rear. I did some research and found some helpful info here <a href="http://sheldonbrown.com/frame-spacing.html">Sheldon Brown Frame Spacing</a> Looks like the frame and forks can be adjusted with a bit of 3x2. </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/some-road-bike-questions#post-1787480 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 15:12:18 +0000 stever 1787480@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>I&#39;d take a guess at a 120mm rear. My 1989 was 126mm and went from 6 speed to 7 and 8 at 130mm without a complaint. Just did it, no shop or framebuilder. A nice, cheap short quill stem was surprisingly hard to find when I last looked. It&#39;ll probably be 27&quot; wheels rather than 700c too, you&#39;ll need a long drop brake caliper if you want newer wheels. I&#39;ve got some nice 27&quot; wheels in my shed actually. </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/some-road-bike-questions#post-1787414 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 14:55:33 +0000 cynic-al 1787414@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Agreed re fork, though a bit pointless onthat frame IMO.</p> <p>Re-spacing is a doddle! </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/some-road-bike-questions#post-1787407 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 14:54:12 +0000 tonyg2003 1787407@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>You can still get 1&quot; carbon forks - I just bought some for my early 90&#39;s 653 frame. Moving to a carbon fork, aheadset and wide bars gives even older steel frames a very modern feel.</p> <p>Spacing is your biggest problem. 120 or 126 OLN from 5-7speed bikes will give you the biggest headache to get respaced to 130OLN. </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/some-road-bike-questions#post-1787289 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 14:20:01 +0000 oldgit 1787289@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Narrow bars from that period are horrid, 40cm feels like youre gripping the stem, fine in the time though. </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/some-road-bike-questions#post-1787271 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 14:16:41 +0000 oldgit 1787271@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>My 1969 is 116 though 120 5 speed would be more common.
