Hi,i'm currently running 32x18 on my SS, but am thinking of changing the rear sprocket to 16t. How much further back will the rear axle sit in the sliding dropouts?
Cheers J

When I changed 16 to 18 on my fixie I reckon it moved about 1cm forwards.

At least if your wheel moves too far back you can remove a link rather than add one which is always risky, especially on a ss.
