I'm concerned about that, I did notice that they Avenir also makes a 6 speed casette version with the steel frame. I'm thinking that may mean the spacing is a bit more than 120. I guess I'll find out when I pick the bike up on Thursday. Either way, an SA 8 speed or SRAM 5 speed isn't the end of the world.
