I didn't know any better so I measured from the outside of each dropout to get the 13cm. Looking back that seems obviously stupid and wrong because thats not where the locknuts hit the dropout.
SO
I just remeasured from the inside of each and it's about 12.3 or 12.4 cm. So I'm assuming I can go ahead and just get some wheels with 120mm spacing - which is what I'm betting the current wheels are anyway.
