thank you all for your help, my neighbor hinted me on to this and i wasn't sure or not if it was true ad if it was what all i need to change. as for the brake clearance i have a lot of adjustment in my dropouts so i am sure i could adjust the braking clearance there but my only worrie is the hub clearance issue but i am fairly positive i could fix that by swapping hardware or adding spacers and maybe stretching the frame? like i sometimes do on my BMX bike
