Okay, looks like I can get the Kinetix wheel for $40 bucks new, yay! So would using this wheel spacer and then using a cassette spacer for the 7 speed move everything too much? Or does the cassette spacer not affect the wheel position in the dropout?
You'll need to redish the wheel because the rim will be off-center towards the drive side. The freehub/cassette remains in its current position, so I don't think you'll have much derailleur adjusting to do. That said, it all sounds like a big hassle for trying to get the wrong wheel in there.
