This usually works OK with a bike designed/built to accept a six cog freewheel, not five or less. If the bike starts with a five cog freewheel, the rear drop space will be 120mm. If that is the case, cold set away because, even though a strong person might be able to install the wheel, it will be difficult to do so.
Hi, it is a 126mm rear spacing. My concern is about whether I'd need dishing if I took 2mm spacer from the non drive but it does slide into my frame easily now.
