Nope. I did have to pry the drops apart maybe a quarter of a inch. Was able to do by hand while
placing the wheel in them. Will definitely suck if I had to do it on a cold wet morning.



Those are the first things I thought of when I saw the topic was swapping wheel sizes on a 25 year old bike.

Or maybe it was an indexing question?
I only got to go on a test ride for a few minutes and haven't tried the indexing. Seemed okay in friction though.
