10-speed spaced freewheel?

Hi All,

I looked around and I haven't been able to find anything on this, so it's probably not available. But I thought I'd ask.

I have a bike that uses classic freewheel hubs and 126mm spacing. I know that 6-speed freewheels are compatible with Campy 8-speed Ergo spacing. I'm actually running 10 speed Ergo with an 8-speed index gear in it and it works well, except the shifter itself needs to be re-built. In thinking about it, I'm a little nervous about long-term usability due to difficulty in finding parts in the case of breakage or theft. Which leads me to my question:

Does anyone manufacture a freewheel with Ergo 10-speed spacing that would work with 126mm dropouts? I figure it might allow for 7 or 8 cogs on the freewheel and make it simple to find Ergo shifters and such since I'd just need to find 10-speed stuff.

Thanks!
