Early 90s Deore LX rear hub spacing?
I'm thinking about picking up a parts bike for its 700c Deore LX wheelset, but I'm trying to figure out if I'll be able to use it in my older frames.
Does anyone know if the rear hub spacing on early 90s deore lx hubs (circa 1992) would be 130mm or 135mm?

my wife's 1992 rockhopper comp with deore LX rear hub is spaced at 135mm. however, i've fit that hub in my cannondale mtb frame that's spaced at 130mm. i just played around with the spacers, and had to saw 5mm off the QR axle.
