Just wondering if its possible to reduce the spacing from 135mm down without buying a new wheel ?

you may be better off spacing the hub out?

steel frames can be cold set (fancy word for bent!)

wouldn't like to do it on a aluminium one though.

Yeah just read that its an old 531 frame so should be ok.

I just wanted to see if it was possible as the lock rings (for the axle) seem huge.
