I couldn't keep the spacing the same and just sandwich the freewheel between spacers to get the right chain alignment? I guess its something you just have to go through to see it.

Also, if you re-dish the spokes to align with the frame, how the hell does a flip flop hub work if you flip the wheel to utilize the other sprocket (or is my understanding of a flip flop way off?)?

Thanks all, appreciate you spreading the knowledge!!
