I've used a 120 fixed gear hub in a 130mm frame -- axle spacers will do the trick. Way back when I bought a wheelset from Sheldon with those spacers, and put them in an old Trek 330 frame.
Whether the chainline is "off" kind of depends on your ideal chainring/cog combination. Frames spaced for 130 hubs have wider chainstays, which can limit the size of the chainring that can be used while achieving good chainline. In my case, the largest gear I could use was a 40x15 -- anything bigger than a 40 tooth ring would hit the chainstay.

I'd rather use it in a 130mm spaced frame (but does that mean > chainline will be off?) > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
