I've respaced two hubs recently for a couple of 135 Riv builds, both using
new Shimano 105 130mm rears. Extra 5mm spacer on the left side (right next
to the current 5mm spacer), re-center the axle so there's 2.5mm sticking out
on each side, redish and works wonderfully. Can be done with 105s and
Ultegras. I would imagine a Dura-Ace would work the same way but I don't
have one in front of me.
