My fancy digital caliper says my dropout is 122mm. I've measured few of these hubs and most are slightly larger than 120mm. Since I'm open to various makes and models to be installed on a steel frame, I feel no need to split hairs. If someone insists that there hub measures 120mm and it will accept a 5 cog freewheel, I'm game.
