Dropout spacing primer needed
Quote | Reply
Can someone run down for me the various dropout spacing standards (120, 130, etc), talking about what kind of bikes you find them on, and what type of parts are readily available in those sizes?

Also, do Shimano Nexus hubs come in all widths, or only one? Is there such a thing as a Nexus hub that is disk brake compatible? I want to see how many different oddball technologies I can (mentally) build into a money-no-problem four-season commuter.

Then, for the Nexus hub info, look at the Shimano web pages or search Google for the Nexus hub.

Just bought a Novara Fusion '05 with a Nexus as a department transportation alternative to our vehicle pool. Looks freakin' awesome and the test rides have been superb.
